a doctor has to write an RX for any of those compounded creams.
I don't know if Tegretol, or gabapentin is necessary for Alan ...
as he can get around pretty well.
Perhaps just lidocaine in ointment form would work for him. That requires an RX too. Is he still on Lyrica? So no gabapentin is necessary (that is Neurontin).
You can ask the podiatrist next time you go...you find out if your insurance pays. Many compounding pharmacies do not take insurance. They make you pay, then submit your own claim.
