What about a topical cream that gets absorbed, such as Fuciderm?

Yeah, insulin was the only drug I could think of to cover percutaneous preparation to dispense. I didn't need to do that one in the end tho cos you only need four of them.

Percutaneous means administered, removed or absorbed by way of the skin as an injection, needle biopsy or transdermal drug, (from dictionary.com)

It makes anything that is given through the skin (I always think the injection is bit wrong though cos of the SC, IM route)!!!

Thats what I was thinking ie any Subcut injection, but got a bit confused when it was listed with the Pom - V ect as I would have thought that would be classed as a route and also the only thing we are going to dispense is insulin that would be given by that route and that would also cover pom-v.

Thanks for reply as thought I was being thick!

I used aVetergesic injection but it can be anything that is given through the skin.
