Exploring Non-Injection Wellness Therapies: Nasal Sprays, Troches, and Topical Compounds

Exploring Non-Injection Wellness Therapies: Nasal Sprays, Troches, and Topical Compounds

At DripDoc, we believe that wellness should be accessible, personalized, and comfortable. For many people, that means exploring alternatives to injections. Whether due to sensitivity, travel, or personal preference, not everyone wants their therapies administered intravenously or intramuscularly.

That’s why we provide education and consultation services for individuals interested in non-injection delivery methods. This includes nasal sprays, sublingual troches, and topical creams. These forms of therapy are sometimes used in wellness programs for energy, metabolism, mood, or hormonal balance—depending on individual needs and medical guidance.

We do not dispense or sell medications directly, but we help connect individuals with licensed providers who can evaluate whether a therapy may be appropriate as part of a broader care plan. If you’re curious about any of the delivery methods listed here, you’re welcome to call us at 833-DRIPDOC to learn more.


What Are Nasal Sprays and Troches?

Nasal sprays deliver compounds through the nasal passages, allowing for rapid absorption into the bloodstream. They are sometimes used to support inflammation, hormone modulation, or neurological function.

Troches (pronounced troh-keys) are small medicated lozenges that dissolve under the tongue or in the cheek. This delivery method bypasses digestion and allows for consistent, controlled absorption. Troches are commonly explored in functional medicine for hormone support, peptides, or mitochondrial health.

These forms are not suitable for everyone, but they offer alternative delivery mechanisms for people seeking convenience and flexibility in their wellness routines.
