Do you deal with arthritis, neuropathy, fibromyalgia, or are you struggling to recover from an injury, surgery, or long-term illness? Localized, chronic pain affects every aspect of life and can be a different experience for everyone, requiring a personalized approach to treatment. That’s where compounded medications come in! Keep reading to explore the various compounded solutions we offer for chronic pain management.
Topical Pain Creams
Our expert pharmacists can make compounded pain creams in personalized doses for each individual patient’s body. Whether you’re suffering from acute or chronic pain, we can make a topical medication for various issues, from injuries from sports or an accident and post-surgery pain to musculoskeletal and neuropathic pain. Topical formulas can be more effective than oral prescription medication, as they are applied directly to the site for maximum benefit. Also, topical applications can have fewer system side effects versus oral pain medications.
Low-Dose Naltrexone
Those who live with an autoimmune condition like rheumatoid arthritis experience chronic inflammation and pain that many medications won’t help. Low-dose naltrexone is an option that’s well-tolerated and effective in providing pain relief. It can also improve sleep, mood, and general feelings of well-being by releasing endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers, blocking pain receptors in your brain, reducing inflammation, and boosting the immune system.
Ketamine Nasal Spray
Are you looking for ways to reduce the amount of opioid prescription medications you’re taking orally? Ask us about our ketamine nasal spray! This type of treatment has been effective for many, as it can subdue neuropathic pain quickly with a small dose. The tailored doses minimize the risk of dependency or side effects, making it a favorable option for long-lasting pain relief.
Wound Care
An aspect of chronic pain that compound prescriptions can help with is wound care. We can make effective topical medicine for hard-to-heal wounds, from ointments to powders and sprays, that reduces inflammation and pain while also increasing circulation and treating infection, whether fungal, bacterial, or viral. A few examples of ways we can help include diabetic ulcers, cellulitis, and pressure sores. We use an innovative base for all of our wound care medications called Spira-Wash Gel® that aids in optimal healing and debridement and makes for a good environment for wound dressing in addition to BASSA-GEL™ for wound care.
Other Chronic Pain Management Solutions
As you can see, we go above and beyond and don’t limit ourselves to making oral prescriptions in standardized doses. No one’s health needs are the same, so their treatment shouldn’t be one-size-fits-all. Here are a few more ways our medicine compounding experts can help you:
- Compounded medications for pelvic pain – meds or hormone therapies for nerve-related pain, muscle relaxers, numbing agents, pain relievers, and more.
- NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) – targeted relief for chronic migraine pain or autoimmune disease management.
- Steroids and other topical treatments for rectal pain
These are just some of the compounded solutions we offer for chronic pain management. Learn more about compounded medication for managing localized pain and let us know how our compounding pharmacy can help you find relief!
