Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Propranolol HCl 4% Topical Gel is a specially compounded medication designed to treat a range of disease states. This unique formulation is a topical gel version of propranolol hydrochloride, a beta-blocker traditionally used to manage hypertension, angina, and other cardiovascular conditions. The gel formulation is designed to provide a more localized delivery of the medication, offering a targeted approach to treatment.

The effectiveness of Propranolol HCl 4% Topical Gel extends to the treatment of hypertension, angina, and other cardiovascular conditions. It functions by inhibiting the action of certain hormones, such as epinephrine, which can cause blood vessels to constrict and elevate blood pressure. By blocking these hormones, the gel aids in reducing blood pressure and enhancing circulation.

In addition to cardiovascular conditions, Propranolol HCl 4% Topical Gel is also utilized to manage other conditions, including migraines, anxiety, and tremors. It operates by inhibiting the action of certain neurotransmitters, such as serotonin, which can trigger symptoms associated with these conditions. By blocking these neurotransmitters, the gel assists in alleviating symptoms and improving overall quality of life.
