Studies have shown that ketamine can be a beneficial remedy when seeking pain relief. However, this medication is only available from a compounding pharmacy.
Topical ketamine is a cream or gel compounded to deliver the therapeutic effects of ketamine through skin application.
People suffering from chronic pain conditions such as neuropathic pain, complicated regional pain syndrome (CRPS), and fibromyalgia often seek alternative pain relief methods.
Not everyone tolerates or responds well to traditional methods, and topical ketamine provides an additional option for patients.
Using ketamine cream is very simple. Patients use it like any other analgesic or pain-relieving cream.
Simply apply the proper dosage and gently massage it into the area where you are experiencing pain every 4-6 hours.
Ketamine cream is generally used in this manner, but it is important to use it as directed by your healthcare provider.
The most common muscle relaxer used in this compound is cyclobenzaprine.
Muscle relaxers are frequently used when treating pain. This is because relaxing the muscle and allowing it to soften up will give it a better chance to heal.
If your muscle is tense and callous, healing from injury will be more difficult.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents are used in conjunction with ketamine to address pain.
These include ketoprofen and flurbiprofen. Like muscle relaxers, anti-inflammatory ingredients aim to stop the muscle from tensing up and give it a better chance to heal.
Numbing agents are often used to reduce pain from sensitive nerve endings.
These nerve endings may have become agitated from injury. They are more commonly used for advanced diabetes and post-surgery pain relief.
The prime goal for a compounded ketamine cream is to provide a pain-free lifestyle for our patients. Finding pain relief without the common side effects of most orally ingested narcotics can be profoundly impactful.
