DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Vascarta’s topical/transdermal curcumin gel formulation is available only by doctor’s prescription.
Please follow your doctor’s instructions and tell your doctor about all other medications you take, especially including those for blood pressure, blood thinning and cancer.
Because Vascarta’s topical/transdermal curcumin gel formulation may lower blood pressure, we suggest applying it while sitting down, in case of temporary lightheadedness.
Using the Topi-CLICK Applicator
Vascarta 8.5% topical/transdermal curcumin gel is supplied in a “Topi-CLICK” package.
To apply it:
- Twist the Topi-CLICK base until you hear/feel a click (Initially, you may need to click the Topi-CLICK base a couple of times to start product dispensing.)
- Touch the tip of the Topi-CLICK onto your affected body part which will allow the gel to be transferred onto your affected body part.
- Rub the gel in thoroughly using the tip of the Topi-CLICK or you can use a medical swab or your finger.
- Continue to rub the gel in until the Topi-CLICK has finished dispensing and the applicator tip is completely dry. This process can take up to a minute or more. To ensure that the total intended dose was received, be sure to check the tip for any remaining dispensed product before putting the cap back on for storage.
- Each click of the base dispenses 0.05 ml of Vascarta’s topical/transdermal curcumin gel.
- Vascarta’s topical/transdermal curcumin gel is highly concentrated, so only 1 to 4 clicks per day typically is sufficient. Each Topi-CLICK contains approximately 180 clicks of gel.
Avoid Staining
- Vascarta’s topical/transdermal curcumin gel has a yellow color (like natural curcumin) and can cause permanent stains.
- To avoid unwanted staining of clothing or household goods, cover the Vascarta gel-treated body part after applying. Covering options include:
- A brace, sleeve or wrap that you do not mind being stained.
- An elastic wrap (e.g., Ace™ bandage).
- A suitably sized waterproof bandage or wound dressing.
- Athletic tape.
- To remove Vascarta’s topical/transdermal curcumin gel from skin, wash with soap and warm water.
WHEN YOU USE VASCARTA’S TOPICAL/TRANSDERMAL CURCUMIN GEL, YOU ACCEPT THE RISK, AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE, THAT PERMANENT STAINING OF YOUR CLOTHING, BEDDING, TOWELS, FURNITURE, OR OTHER HOUSEHOLD GOODS MAY OCCUR. NEITHER VASCARTA INC. NOR TOWN & COUNTRY COMPOUNDING PHARMACY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OR CLAIMS IN ANY SUCH REGARD.
