Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a compounded formulation of a topical gel containing 23% lidocaine and 7% tetracaine. This unique blend is designed to address a range of conditions, including pain, itching, and inflammation. It has proven particularly effective in managing conditions such as post-herpetic neuralgia, post-surgical pain, and other forms of neuropathic pain.

The combination of lidocaine and tetracaine in this formulation creates a synergistic effect, enhancing the efficacy and duration of relief from pain and itching. Lidocaine functions by blocking nerve conduction, thereby reducing pain, while tetracaine works to alleviate inflammation. This dual-action approach ensures a more rapid and effective relief from pain and itching than either ingredient could provide independently.

This compounded formulation is dispensed through a pump mechanism, facilitating easy and precise application on the skin for targeted treatment or absorption of active ingredients in a gel-like consistency. This method of application ensures that the active ingredients are delivered directly to the affected area, enhancing their effectiveness and reducing the potential for side effects.

Safe and effective for use in adults and children over the age of two, this formulation should be applied to the affected area as directed by a healthcare provider. Adherence to the provided instructions is crucial to achieving optimal results.

If you have any queries regarding this formulation or its application in treating your specific condition, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. Our team is committed to assisting you in finding the most suitable treatment option for your needs.
