Cyclo Keto Lido

Apply since 2 weeks this topical cream. 3 days ago I started to experience numbness of the entire foot. It's getting more frequent by the hour. Assume this to be a side effect since I did not experience foot numbness before and it is only in the foot I am applying this cream on the right side. Per docs instruction I have to apply 4 times a day combined with 3 times a day: Ketamine 5% Gel. Any advice for me? Thank you. ## Hello, Peter! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having. That is very unusual, generally side effects are limited to topical skin reactions, such as redness, irritation and burning. The Lidocaine is an anesthetic, so it could possibly do that. Do you know how much of it is in there? Is there a dosage listed? Have you consulted your doctor a...

Does this have an expiration date? ## Hello, Jack! Is it a cream or an ointment? They do have expiration dates, but not the same for all. So, can you please post back with this additional information? Thanks! ## Does anyone know if your prescriptions consistencies change the effect of the drug. My first bottle was the consistency more like Vaseline. Now my second bottle is more like creamy lotion. Other than that this seems to help with my severe back and neck pain.

Could this cream cause a scaly red rash that itches if using too much? ## Hi Madonna, Concerning side effects, The US National Library of Medicine (also known as NIH.gov) lists skin rashes/itchy/red/blistering/peeling/ or otherwise as potential symptoms and/or allergic reactions relating to all of the medications listed above, except for Baclofen. So just to clarify, this includes Ketoprofen (Keto) + Cyclobenzprine (Cyclo) + Lidocaine (Lido). And this isn't necessary in regards to using too much, but just happen to be side effects in general. NIH goes on to state that you should contact your doctor immediately if you do experience these symptoms. I hope this helps answer your question!

have tried everything for post-herpatic neurapthy and nothing is working. any suggestions? ## The MayoClinic states that "there's currently no cure for postherpetic neuralgia, but there are treatment options to ease symptoms. For most people, postherpetic neuralgia improves over time." In my own honest opinion, anything can be cured over time. They said cancer couldn't be cured. They said diabetes couldn't be cured; and I'm sure plenty other diseases as well. But each of those have been cured and even reversed by numerous amounts of people who chose not to buy in to the negative beliefs. If I were in your shoes, using the knowledge I have, I would take on a primarily raw vegan diet that is high in fresh fruit, dark leafy greens, seeds & nuts, and maybe even s...

Dr sent me this for my ear. I have tinnitus and meniere's disease. Does this work?? ## I have meniere's disease but haven't had a bout in about a year now THANK GOD!!!! I just recently had ringing in the ears but it went away by end of the day. It goes as no comes once a week. But I believe after I stopped taking Gabapentin 30omg 4 x's a day I stopped getting dizzy. So far so good. I suggest if your taking Gabapentin to slowly taper down and fully off of it it's a horrible drug ## From what you've listed, this contains Ketorolac, Lidocaine, Cyclobenzaprine, and Gabapentin, combined like this they are often used to treat topical pain, and inflammation. Typical side effects may include skin redness, rash, and irritation. Is it helping you? ## My Dr prescribed this ...

Would like to order some of this cream ## Hello, Carla! How are you? I'm sorry, but this website does not manufacture, prescribe nor sell anything, it is an information only website. Additionally, this cream requires a doctor's prescription and must be made by a specialty compounding pharmacy to the doctor's dosage directions. Has your doctor prescribe this for you? ## Does this cream come up bad if my work checks me? ## I have Diclofenac 10% in PLO cream mixed. I've have the cream for two years and am wondering if it has an expiry date? ## Does this cream have any type of drugs that will be positive in a U/A or swab...? ## I was prescribed a similar cream, without the gabo, but it came with tubes of lidocaine and prilocaine. I was wondering what the compounds were? This...

I'm cleaning out my medicine cabinet and came across this old RX (cream). It doesn't say what it is for. Can ypu tell me what this RX is used for? ## Hi Suzanne, Based on my research, I believe the abbreviations you mentioned are supposed to correspond with the following list of medications: Ketoprofen (Keto), Baclofen (Baclo), Cyclobenzprine (Cyclo), and Lidocaine (Lido) Apparently the cream itself is meant to be used for inflammation and pain. However, I am unsure of what "Flurb" is supposed to stand for. Do you have any other clues as to what this particular ingredient may be? ## Flurbiprofen is a NSAID that has been available since 1988. It is rarely prescribed in oral form as it has been known to cause spikes or fluctuations in blood pressure and reduces the effecti...

Can this topical cream affect your sleeping cycle??? Can it make you sleep a heavy sleep? ## Hello, JoAnn! How are you? No, it shouldn't. The medications may cause drowsiness as side effects, but you only absorb a little of them, when using them topically, so it shouldn't cause a deep, heavy sleep. For that to happen, someone would basically have to almost bathe in it. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thanks so much. Can it be addictive? ## Hello, I just received a topical Cream Keta/Cyclo/GABA/Lido (10%/2%/6%/3.5%). I was told to put it in all places where I am experiencing pain and on the bottle it says: Apply 3 times daily for pain and/or muscle spasms as needed. *** PLEASE HELP ANYONE!!! *** I suffer from extreme nerve pain in my back. It affects the left side more...

Has this topical gel ever been prescribed for headaches? ## Hello, Sam! How are you?

According to the FDA, Ketorolac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant and Lidocaine is an anesthetic. Side effects are most often due to its topical use and may include skin redness, itching, irritation and burning. Is there anything else I can help with?

My Dr. proscripted the above for shoulder pain, can yoou tell me what in it and any side effacts they may have ## Hello, Willmay! How are you? Since this is topical, it doesn't usually cause a lot of side effects, because you absorb very little of the medications, but you may experience some skin irritation at the application site. Ketorolac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant that has also been shown to help with pain, both Baclofen and Cyclobenzaprine are muscle relaxants and Lidocaine is a topical anesthetic. I'm sorry, but I'm not sure what the Aman stands for, is anyone else familiar with? ## Amantadine is the "aman" medication you're looking for.

I recently got keto/lido/cycl cream that was prescribed to me because a year ago I got whiplash from a car accident and it still hasn't gone away. I was wondering whether or not I could use the cream with a heating pad as for I use the pad alot? The cream is exactly 10% ketoprofen 6G, 4% lidocaine 2.4G, and 1% cyclobenzaprine 0.6G. I would very much appreciate anyone who could answer me. Thank you! ## Hi Jessica, thank you for bearing with me as I did not have a chance to reply back to your other thread. Because there is Lidocaine in the cream I would avoid using a heating pad unless you can get an okay from your doc or the compounding pharmacist. I read on a page from drugs.com about the Lidoderm patch (which is basically another topical form of Lidocaine, but administered through ...

Can anyone tell me the prescription trade name for a cream containing baclofen 20 mg, ketoprofen 150(?), and lidocaine 50 mg? ## From my own investigation, pain creams that contain these types of ingredients are formulated in compound pharmacies and therefore do not have a trade name like many other topical prescriptions. These are just generic topical formulas that can vary in ingredients with anything from what's listed below, to other combinations that I have not included here: -Baclofen, Ketoprofen, Lidocaine -Baclofen Gabapentin, Ketoprofen, Lidocaine -Baclofen, Cyclobenzaprine, Ketoprofen, Lidocaine -Baclofen Gabapentin, Ketoprofen, Lidocaine, Dicyclomine -Ketoprofen, Gabapentin, Lidocaine, Amitriptyline Hope this helps! ## My compounding pharmacy calls it Baclo-Keto-Lido 2/10...

My neurosurgeon told me to avoid NSAIDS or anything that will thin my blood because I am scheduled for surgery in 6 days. I am in excruciating pain because I had to stop taking Voltaren. I have a topical solution that has Ketopro 10%, cyclobenzaprine 1% and lidocaine 5%. I can't get in touch with the mail order pharmacy. Does anyone know, if any of those will cause blood thinning? Thank you! ## Yes, the Ketopro stands for Ketoprofen, which is an NSAID, so it should be avoided, before surgery, according to your doctor's instructions. The FDA lists its other typical side effects, when used topically, as possibly including headache, skin redness, irritation, and flaking. Is there anything else I can help with?

is keprocaine cream good for knee pain and inflamation ## Please correct me if I'm wrong, but from what little bit of information I could gather, Keprocaine cream is a topical pain cream with the following active ingredients: Ketoprofen - nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug Baclofen - used to treat muscle spasms and tightness Cyclobenzaprine - skeletal muscle relaxant Lidocaine - local anesthetic With that said, I do believe it could be beneficial for knee pain and inflammation. Additionally, I would also highly recommend looking into "hyaluronic acid injections" for knee pain, as I've heard some great things about its effectiveness. I hope this helps!

Hi, I just received this cream from my pain management doctor. I have had 2 LS surgeries for severely sequestered discs, severe radiating pain and peroneal nerve decompression. Continued pain/numbness in my R leg due to radiculopathy. I take 3000mg of Gralise (gababentin) - Yes, you read correctly! I take 5x the amount of Gralise to decrease the nerve pain in my leg. Do you think there is hope with this topical cream? ## Hi Jennifer, The cream you're describing containing baclofen + cyclobenzaprine + gabapentin + ketoprofen + lidocaine, is reportedly prescribed as a topical pain reliever. However medications like this can and often do affect each person differently, whereas it's possible that you may receive more benefits from it than others or vise versa, depending on the sever...
