Speciality Compounding

Compounding

We specialize in compounding pharmacy. Compounding is the art and science of preparing customized medications for the patients specific needs. Prior to the 1950’s compounding medications constituted the primary function of every pharmacist and was considered a standard of practice. With the introduction of mass manufacturing by pharmaceutical companies, compounding pharmaceuticals declined in pharmacy practice. However, this "one size fits all" approach did not always meet individual patient specific needs. In the last few decades, specialty compounding has regained its’ state of art practice to full fill this specific needs.
Compounded Medications

Bio-identical hormones have been used over 20 years to meet the needs of women (in pre menopause, menopause and post menopause) and men (in andropause). Bio-identical hormone treatment helps both women and men restore hormonal imbalances and help reduce or treat symptoms caused by this imbalance.
Symptoms of hormonal imbalances in women include: depression, mood alterations, sleep disturbances, hot flashes, hair loss, fatigue, weight problems, bone loss (osteoporosis), and decreased sex drive.
Symptoms of hormonal imbalances in men include: decreased energy, sleep disturbance, mood alterations, depression, muscle weakness, erectile dysfunction, and decreased sex drive.
Bio-identical hormones include Estrone (E1), Estradiol (E2), Estriol (E3), Progesterone, Testosterone, Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), and Pregnenolone. Our pharmacists work together with patients and prescribers to provide customized bio-identical hormone replacement therapy that provides the needed hormones in the most appropriate strength and dosage form to meet each individual’s specific needs. Hormone replacement therapy should be initiated carefully after an initial medical checkup and after the family history has been reviewed. Every individual is unique and will respond to therapy in their own way. Close monitoring and medication adjustments are essential.

Compounding allows veterinarians to broaden their prescribing abilities and to offer dosage forms that are patient-specific in strength and formulation. The compounding pharmacist can solve a lot of problems for both the doctor and the owner – certain medications maybe available only in human dosage forms or exist only as bulk chemicals; specific products may no longer be available; the dosage strength of commercially available product may be too big for the small animal or too little for the horse; the taste or flavour may be too disagreeable for the animal. Compounders also work on problems of many exotic animals.
