I have used the Keto cream containing ketoprophen, cyclobenzaprine, and lidocaine. I found it is only for topical pain, and was very expensive from the compound pharmacy.

Reporting back...

The compounding cream helps with the sting, topically anyway like Jon indicated. And it's expensive ($100/4oz) but worth keeping in arsenal for really bad days.

$100 for 4oz?

Is that an medical insurance adjusted price or just the base price?

That's the retail price. I doubt insurance covers it, I'll let you know if I find out differently. I have had one bad experience after another with United Healthcare even covering Lyrica. They seem almost unfamiliar with PN in general.

I digress. The compounding cream is really expensive which is why I'll use it sparingly, reserved for "special occasions".
