Label on the container simply says PB003 (Neuropathy) Cream.
Also lists what the podiatrist wrote for combination of ingredients:
1 pump = 1GM *Ketoprofen 10/ Diclofenac 1/ Gabapentin 6/ Amitriptyline 2/
Lidocaine 5/ DMSO 5%"
Dispenses: 60 Pumps
Pricey but worth it to me ($65).
I don't see an expiration date anywhere on the label.
I can't stand the smell of the OTC creams/salves, nor the intense burning of several of them (Tiger Balm was the worst ever!). This compounded cream has no odor, doesn't burn (I have intensely sensitive skin due to CNS issues), not greasy, and has not stained socks.
I have osteoarthritis in both hands, with the right being the most affected (hugely deformed knuckles, lots of "bumps" and nodules). Yes, the right is my dominant hand. At times both get seriously painful (Pain Level 8 -9 out of 10), and once in a while becomes off-the-chart pain with even the palms and tops of hands throbbing. Last week both were at that higher end of the pain scale, and in desperation I used this cream on them, put on cotton gloves and sat on sofa with the heating pad on top of hands. It worked! After my self-designed "therapy" brought me relief, I thoroughly washed hands with very warm water and massaged hand moisturizing cream.
