What is the word that ends in able or ible for (medication for example) that get applied to the skin?

Asked by flo (13313points) August 2nd, 2018

There are injestibles, inhalables, injectibles, and (is there anymore?) So, what about the ointments and the like?
But if there is a word that doesn’t end in able or ible that’s ok too. As well it doesn’t have to be medication related.
