Compounding is the creation of a particular pharmaceutical product to fit different or special needs of a health consumer. To do this, Compounding Pharmacists combine and/or process appropriate ingredients utilizing various tools. This may be done for medically necessary reasons, such as to change the form of the medication from a solid pill to a liquid, to avoid a non-essential ingredient that the health consumer is allergic to, or to obtain the exact dose needed. It may also be done for voluntary reasons, such as adding favorite flavors to a medication.

We can customize compounding medications for different people with special needs. What makes us unique is that your medication is developed with your specific needs in mind.

Physicians may prescribe an individually compounded medication for a health consumer with an unusual health need. This allows the physician to tailor a prescription to each individual.

• Clients needing limited dosage strengths, such as a very small dose for infants.
• Clients needing a different formulation, such as turning a pill into a liquid or transdermal gel for people who can't swallow pills due to disability.
• Clients needing an allergen-free medication, such as one without gluten or colored dyes.
• Clients who need drugs that have been discontinued by pharmaceutical manufacturers because of low profitability.
• Clients who are taking bio-identical hormone replacement therapy.
• Kids who want flavored additives in liquid prescriptions, usually so that the medication tastes like candy or fruit.
• Veterinary prescription, for a change in dose, change to a more easily-administered form (such as from a pill to a liquid or transdermal gel), or to add a flavor more palatable to the animal.
• Oral prescription that cause side effects, because they are absorbed systemically, can be changed to topical cream forms to minimize side effects.
