Sunburn
Drugs used to numb the pain and soothe the inflammation of sunburn have long been used topically for treatment. Drugs such as lidocaine, benzocaine, aloe vera, ketoprofen and ibuprofen can be compounded to create a treatment specific for the patients' needs as well as reduce the need to purchase more than one commercially available product.
Central Drugs recommends the following formulations for Sunburn:
Aloe Vera/ Lidocaine Lotion |
Beeswax Lip Balm w/ Sunscreen |
Diclofenac Sodium 1.5% Topical Gel |
Ibuprofen 2% Topical Gel |
Ketoprofen 5%/ Lidocaine HCL 0.5% Topical Gel |
Lidocaine 4%/ Aloe Vera Topical Gel |
