My pain management doc gave me this cream and I forgot to ask him about possible long-term side effects. I will see him again, but in the interim, thought I'd post here to see if anyone can shed some light.

The ingredients:
solaraze 3% gel 25 gm
celebrex 2%
gabapentin 3%
cyclobenzaprine 1%
QS Lidocaine 3% 120 gm

Compounded at the Life Line Pharmacy

Thanks Faye!
This cream does not have a 'name', the doc gave it to me. He had this concoction made by a compounding pharmacy.

Of course the lidocaine is a pain reliever, as is the gabapentin for neuropathic pain. I'm a bit concerned about the celebrex, since it was recalled as a pill. Looks like a good concoction for pain relief! Hope it helps!
