This compounded formulation of Ketotifen 0.05%/Theanine (L) 0.5% Topical Gel is a semisolid preparation designed for easy and precise application on the skin. It is dispensed through a pump mechanism, which facilitates targeted treatment or absorption of the active ingredients. This formulation is primarily used in the veterinary field for the treatment of various allergic and inflammatory conditions.
