One last thing. Creams can be compounded up to 20% T. However, I do not know if anyone here uses the 20% because it is so hard to measure it out since it is such a small amount of cream. Just think if you took the amount of cream you now have and cut it in half how difficult it would be to measure.
I suppose if you could not get your levels up using the 10% that you could try the 20% in larger amounts under the theory that you are getting much less absorption than you need.
1cc and Sunkist are both avid proponants of using creams and they both use 10%. 1cc gets his from
