PAIN MANAGEMENT CREAM

Many people are struggling with chronic pain and are constantly dealing with the effects of their condition.Many of these pain sufferers are taking medication that leaves them with unwanted side effects. For these patients a compounded pain cream may be the answer.

In many cases, pain medications can be made into a cream that will provide active ingredients to a specific site. This would bypass the GI tract and eliminate negative side effects of taking the oral pain meds. Ask your physician or pharmacist about the benefits of these compounds.
