Disclaimer

All compounded preparations by Noor Chemist are freshly prepared upon receipt of your prescription or order to ensure maximum potency and therapeutic efficacy. Due to the meticulous quality control processes required for extemporaneous compounding, some formulations may experience a 1-day preparation delay to achieve optimal stability and performance. Product images depicting packaging and labeling are for illustrative reference only; actual containers, labels, and auxiliary materials may vary based on batch-specific pharmaceutical standards.

These formulations are designed for short-term use (typically 30-90 days), as extemporaneous compounds lack industrial preservatives. For specific storage instructions and shelf-life details pertaining to your formulation, please contact our pharmacists via our Contact Us portal.

Important Safety Notice: Skin sensitivity to active or inert ingredients may occur even with physician-recommended formulations. We strongly advise performing a patch test before full application: Apply a pea-sized amount to clean inner forearm skin, wait 24 hours, and discontinue use if redness, itching, or swelling develops. Individual reactions to ingredients like salicylic acid, essential oils, or penetration enhancers may vary. Consult your healthcare provider if you have known sensitivities.
