I think he said klonodine was in it, cant remember, it had a few extra things I didn't know. It cost $90 for almost 4 ounces, no insurance coverage. But if this will help take less pills so I can avoid the side effects of muscle pain from gaba I will pay it gladly.

I hope it has clonodine.

No side effects. Next script can be tailored if more is needed. Just keep track of what's in it. I looked up the script as well. Medicare didn't cover this either. ginnie

Mine is Amiltrip-2%, Baclofen-2%, Bupivacaine-2%, Clonidine-0.2%, Gabapen-6%, and Ketamine-10%
It is not "instant relief" but darn close to it ! Works for me, but then I am stuck in the chair or couch for awhile after applying it. Don't get it on the furniture or carpet, ehhh. Great for those Level 9+ pain episodes.
Only thing, I have had 2 cases of "contact dermititus" using it. Really what I did was apply the cream and I had to use a pair of socks/shoes within an hour or 2 and when my feet sweated, my skin broke out. Occlude I belive it is called, don't cover the skin or such too soon after applying it is all. Good luck to you !

Both compounds have enough goodies in it to help. I didn't have any trouble with skin outbreaks. ginnie

I have been on Compounding Cream since December 2013 and it works wonderfully for me. I have reduced my Gabapentine from 1800mg daily to 1200mg daily.

My cream is consist of Gabapentine, Clonidine, Ketamine and Baclofen. Since Ketamine is a controlled substance, I dont use it daily. Mine is covered by my insurance and with a minimal copay. The validity of the compounding cream is short though...it says only for 1 month. But I put it in the refrigerator to extend its shelf life.

For someone like me who has been on constant pain for almost 4 years now, this is VERY GOOD!!!
