Scream Cream Rx

Compounded, not FDA-approved

Scream cream is a different product at every pharmacy. We graded the ingredients instead of the marketing.

There is no standard scream cream: we verified three different formulas at two pharmacies, from a six-drug blend to a sildenafil-free variant, and no blend as sold has ever been through a published trial. So this site takes the recipe apart. Topical sildenafil missed its primary endpoints in a 200-woman trial (one subset improved). The methylxanthines in most recipes have zero arousal studies. Alprostadil, the one drug with a real arousal-cream trial record, is not in any formula we verified. And none of the seven documented ingredients has an FDA-approved topical form. Every number links to its source.

T-01Scream cream ingredient evidence explorerThe per-compound data component: every study behind every documented ingredient, filterable by ingredient, by which documented formulas contain it, and by evidence grade. Renders the central fact as a browsable surface: the blend row is empty, and the best-studied arousal-cream drug is not in the product.T-02Scream cream formula variability tableThe documented recipes side by side: pharmacy, product name, active ingredients with strengths where advertised, dispensed format, fetch date, and archived source. The moving target, made inspectable. A 'what varies' panel names the axes: ingredient count (3 to 6), sildenafil presence, methylxanthine choice, and custom-strength offers.T-03Scream cream application and absorption educationEducation-only component, no inputs to compute: what the trials of neighboring products actually did (application sites, timing, doses), the absorption measurements that exist and their limits, the partner-exposure accounting, and the cautions that survive the uncertainty. Explicitly not instructions; the dispensed label governs.
