Transdermal Study
STUDY
Evaluation of the Percutaneous Absorption of Ketamine HCl +
Gabapentin + Clonidine HCl + Baclofen, In SaltStable LS Advanced™,
Into Human Skin, In Vitro, Using the Franz Skin Finite Dose Model
Using Humco’s SaltStable LS Advanced™
the study was designed to evaluate the
percutaneous absorption pharmacokinetics
of ketamine HCl, gabapentin, clonidine HCl
and baclofen. Absorption was measured in
human epidermal cultures, in vitro, using
the finite dose technique and Franz Diffu-
sion Cells. The four drugs were selected
due to their frequent use in compounding
topical pain formulations along with
compounding multiple actives in
one formulation.
The formula was tested on standardized sections with Salt Stable LS,
transdermal compounding base, for the percutaneous absorption of
ketamine HCl, gabapentin, clonidine HCl and baclofen over a 48-hour
dose period. At pre-selected times after dose application, the dermal
receptor solution was removed in its entirety, replaced with fresh
receptor solution, and an aliquot saved for subsequent analysis. High
Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) analyzed the samples.
RESULTS
Humco’s SaltStable LS Advanced™ is proven to deliver multiple drugs
beyond the stratum corneum, simultaneously into and through the
human skin after a single dose in the base. The absorption profiles in-
dicate a rapid penetration to a peak flux for gabapentin occurring at ap-
proximately 4 hours after dose application, and for baclofen occurring at
approximately 8 hours after dose application. The absorption profiles
indicate a steady penetration to a peak flux for ketamine HCl occurring
at approximately 12 hours after dose application, and for clonidine HCl
occurring at approximately 32 hours after dose application.

Statinzyme by
Prescription
Vitamins LLC
Statinzyme is an advanced
patent pending supplemental
formula that was developed
by a pharmacist to help
prevent and relieve the
harmful side effects of
Statins and Beta Blockers.
Statins are the most widely prescribed pharmaceutical
in the world. In the United States alone, over 33 million
adults use statins. It is estimated that seven million
of these patients will experience musculoskeletal pain
as a result of taking statins.1
Are Your Patients
Experiencing Side Effects
From Their Statin Medications?
Discover a healthy business opportunity.
Statinzyme is an advanced supplemental formula that was developed by a practicing pharmacist to help
prevent the harmful side effects of cholesterol-lowering medications, including these statins:
Statinzyme's enteric coating is what makes Statinzyme's formula very effective. Most supplements such
as CoQ10 only have a 3% absorption rate when taken orally due to the harsh environment of the stomach.
Statinzyme's enteric coating allows it to bypass the harsh environment of the stomach and increases the
absorption rate to virtually 100%. This is according to data from the Linus Pauling institute.

ü Enforcement of compliance was funded
in the Affordable Care Act and will be
handled by the Office of Civil Rights.
ü Enforcement will be proactive with on-site

HIPAA (The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability
Act of 1996) may be one of the most impacting set of regulations
to take place in the pharmacy industry. Now, with the
publication of the “FINAL” HIPAA Rules in January 2013,

other health care facilities.
