Many medications are commonly available as capsules or tablets. However, medications taken orally must pass through a patient’s digestive tract before making their way into the system, which may delay the effect of the medication or result in gastrointestinal side effects.

JJ’s Prescription Specialties can prepare many of these medications as topical preparations—creams, lotions, solutions or gels—which are applied directly to the skin. Topical preparations allow the drug to enter the bloodstream through the skin, bypassing the gastrointestinal tract and potentially minimizing the related side effects.
