Do you have a medicine that needs to be taken in a customised strength? Or perhaps as a troche instead of a tablet ? Do you have a special formula nutritional supplement you want produced?
We can do almost anything. Customised medicines do come at a cost however your medicine may already be produced on site and be more economical than compounding as a one off product. Visit our Products page for information on medicines/supplements we do for a number of regular patients.
What is Compounding?
Pharmaceutical Compounding is the art & science of preparing medicines from basic raw materials . Many pharmacies used to prepare various medicines in the back of their premises before these medicines became mass produced by drug companies. Compounding is still important today because it fills a niche in the market for patients who need a medicine produced in a form that is not readily available I.E When a specific dosage is not available, the preferred dosage can be supplied, or it can be supplied in a format (liquid, cream, powder for example) that suits the patient. We compound section 29 prescription products but also make dietary supplements which do not require a prescription to obtain.
See our Products Page for more information on commonly compounded items, also see our Dietary Supplements page for a list of products we can do on request.
