slots on the top of the
container tube and snap

Prime the Topi-Click® by
turning the bottom until
topical is dispensed and

Topi-Click® Specifications*

  • Each click (¼ turn of the Topi-Click® container base) moves the plunger (topical elevator) approximately 0.25ml of volume space, thereby dispensing 0.25ml of cream on average. (The dispensing mechanism is similar to a syringe, but with more control of the plunger movement, so Topi-Click® is easier to use.)
  • The most common number of clicks used for one dose is 2 clicks (moves the plunger 0.5ml volume space); so when filling with approximately 35ml the Topi-Click will provide approximately 64 doses (at 2 clicks per dose or 128 clicks total); the rest (approx. 0.75ml) is used for initial priming and (approx. 2ml) is residual.*
  • The Topi-Click® container can be used to dispense a total amount of approximately 5g to 35g of a topical preparation depending on the volume to weight ratio of base and formula used.
  • The Topi-Click labels like a prescription vial - simplified labeling for lower cost – and easier to read.
  • Domed applicator pad for application w/o dispensing on to hands first.
  • Audible, visual and tactile click registration for user recognition.
  • A “Refill” reminder system helps patients to reorder in a timelier manner. See Operating Instructions above.
  • Designed to resist accidental discharge in purse, pocket or luggage.
  • Made of FDA grade plastic. UV block in plastic protects the contents from UV rays.
  • One time use only. Note: check with your State Board of Pharmacy to see if you are allowed to recycle prescription drug containers. Recycle Code is
  • *As required for compounded prescription pharmaceuticals; verify the formulas and the weight to volume conversions before dispensing to patients. The Food and Drug Administration has not evaluated the Topi-Click® and use with prescription pharmaceuticals should always be evaluated by a licensed pharmacist.

Dispensing Reference Notes:

The below cream bases have been tested in the Topi-Click® and determined to have dispensing weights of 0.5g +/- 5% per 2 clicks. **

Cream Base: Medisca HRT Cream Base (for Women)
0.5ml = 0.498gm based on density, 29.88gm = 30ml
Measuring the weight of 2 clicks each time dispensed from the Topi-Click® resulted in the following:
Average weight per 2 clicks: 0.476gm
Standard Deviation: 0.0151
Coefficient of Variance; 3.16%

Cream Base: PCCA Cosmetic HRTTM
0.5mL=0.477gm based on density, 28.5gm = 30mL.
Measuring the weight of 2 clicks each time dispensed from the Topi-Click® resulted in the following:
Average weight per 2 clicks: 0.468gm
Standard Deviation: 0.0156
Coefficient of Variance: 3.28%.

**The above notes are for certain batches of the referred to bases and without other ingredients. All bases, formulas, and batches have slight differences and therefore need calibration. Some viscous bases are not practical for use in the Topi-Click®
