Patient Safety

Patient safety is our top priority at Terrain Pharmaceuticals.  Every measure is taken to ensure the end-user is treated safely and effectively.  Each product is tested to prove it maintains integrity from start to finish.  This begins with our topical brand of pain relief.  Our specially designed formula was developed to curb the negative side effects commonly associated with oral medications, more specifically oral NSAIDs.

NSAIDs, or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, are used to control pain and inflammation.  They work by blocking enzymes in the body that help make chemicals that signal pain.  When these enzymes are blocked, you feel less pain.  The consequences of ingesting oral NSAIDs vary from heartburn and nausea to allergic reactions and intestinal bleeding.  Higher risks of these side effects are linked to those over the age of 60, people prescribed with medications for high blood pressure, or women who are pregnant or nursing.  Our specialty is blocking pain, but we are also committed to the safety of each consumer.

Topical administration significantly reduces the above side effects of NSAIDs.  Our products allow for direct application to your specific area of pain.  Isolating the source also encourages faster and more effective relief.  The efficacy and reliability of our LidoPro® brand is certified through weeks of testing before and after manufacturing, including a 40-day clinical trial.

Prior to production, the bulk formula is sampled multiple times in a 28-day period to validate no formation or growth of various microorganisms such as S. aureus and E. coli.  Once the results are accepted, we run additional tests to confirm the stability of the finished product.  These confirm that the active ingredient strengths on our labels are maintained and various properties such as pH and viscosity remain in a specified range.  After all testing is approved, our quality team releases the lot and maintains lot specific documentation.

Before the first tube of LidoPro® Ointment was ever brought to market, we sent the formula to a lab for clinical trials.  Individuals aged 18-60, were provided samples of LidoPro® to apply below their shoulder. After weeks of applications and rest periods, monitored by trained laboratory personnel, ZERO subjects reported an adverse reaction of any kind.  The results concluded in this study matched our expectations; LidoPro® shows no identifiable signs or symptoms of irritation or contact allergy.  Lab Tested, Patient Approved!

After taking a behind-the-scenes look at what goes into each and every lot of our LidoPro® product line, we hope that you will trust our brand like several thousands of others have for years!
