Compounding combines
an ageless art with the latest medical knowledge
and state-of-the-art technology, allowing specially
trained professionals to prepare customized medications
to meet each patient’s specific needs. Compounding
is fundamental to the profession of pharmacy and
was a standard means of providing prescription medications
before drugs began to be produced in mass quantities
by pharmaceutical manufacturers. The demand for
professional compounding has increased as healthcare
professionals and patients realize that the limited
number of strengths and dosage forms that are commercially
available do not meet the needs of many patients,
and that these patients often have a better response
to a customized dosage form that is "just what the
doctor ordered".
Our compounding professionals
can prepare
- unique dosage
forms containing the best dose of medication
for each individual.
- medications in dosage
forms that are not commercially available,
such as transdermal
- gels, troches, "chewies",
and lollipops.
- medications free of problem-causing
excipients such as dyes, sugar, lactose,
or alcohol.
- combinations of various
compatible medications into a single dosage
form for easier administration and improved
compliance.
- medications that are
not commercially available.
