If you are suffering from acute or chronic pain and getting little or no results while using standard medications to manage the pain, you should consider compounded medications in your pain management plan. Through the use of Transdermal creams and gels, compounded medicine helps you control pain more effectively while setting you free from the daily pills routine.

 What’s wrong with consuming daily pills to reduce pain?

Any substance you swallow goes through the GI and a portion is absorbed by the stomach and intestine then that portion passes to the liver where it is metabolized. The remaining portion of medication is diluted through the blood usually causing side effects ,until it reaches the targeted areas. Consuming daily pills is not good for the liver or stomach and in some cases tolerance drives patients to increase their daily dose of oral medication to achieve the same pain relief, trapping you in a viscous cycle.

Using compounded, customized transdermal creams and gels allows for direct application of the medication to the painful site thus better targeting while using lower doses which in turn decreases the side effects of medication  , less stress on the liver & the GI.
