Buying BLT: Questions

Can I buy BLT numbing cream online?+
Licensed providers can. A legitimate supplier will ask for your NPI and state license before shipping. A site that sells BLT to anyone without verification is not a compliant source.
Do I need a prescription to buy BLT cream?+
BLT is a compounded prescription-strength preparation. It is dispensed to licensed providers or against a prescription, not sold over the counter.
How much does BLT numbing cream cost?+
MediCaine Pro BLT 20/10/10 runs $80 for 30 g, $130 for 100 g and $275 for a 454 g jar, shipping included. Per gram, the jar is about $0.61, the 100 g about $1.30 and the 30 g about $2.67.
What is the difference between 503A and 503B BLT?+
A 503A pharmacy compounds per prescription or per order. A 503B outsourcing facility makes larger batches under cGMP for office stock. Both can be legitimate sources; ask any supplier which one they are and how they handle office use in your state.
How fast does MediCaine ship?+
Each order is compounded fresh and ships within 2 to 3 business days after payment confirmation.
