Today at Doctor’s Choice Pharmacy, I had a chat with a dermatologist who called to ask,
“Rania, do you guys compound tranexamic acid cream for hyperpigmentation? I have a patient with melasma who hasn’t responded well to other treatments.”

I smiled. “Yes, we do. In fact, tranexamic acid is becoming one of the go-to ingredients for stubborn hyperpigmentation and melasma. It works by reducing tyrosinase activity and inhibiting UV-induced pigmentation, making it a great choice for patients with darker skin tones or sun-induced pigmentation.”

She asked, “Is it safe for long-term use?”

“Yes,” I said. “It’s generally very well tolerated, even for sensitive skin, and can be used long-term without the risks of thinning or irritation associated with hydroquinone. We can also customize the concentration, typically 2-5%, depending on the patient’s needs.”

She sounded relieved. “That’s perfect. My patient has been struggling with dark patches for years, and I think this might finally help.”

I added, “And if you want to supercharge the results, we can add ingredients like kojic acid, niacinamide, or vitamin C for an even more potent brightening effect.”

Before hanging up, I said, “Just let us know if you have any specific formulations in mind, and we’ll take care of the rest. We’re also excited to expand our dermatology offerings once our new hazardous compounding lab is complete.”

She thanked me, “You’re a lifesaver, Rania. I’ll send the script over today.”

At Doctor’s Choice Pharmacy, we’re always ready to help dermatologists create custom, effective treatments for their patients—because skin health is personal.

Until tomorrow,
