Compounded medications make treatment more personal -
but they aren’t always necessary.
We avoid compounding when:
• commercial medicines already serve the patient well
• there is no intolerance or dosage mismatch
• changing form may compromise stability or safety
• evidence doesn’t support the request
• expectations don’t align with what therapy can achieve
A responsible compounding pharmacy doesn’t just prepare medication -
it guides patients and prescribers toward the right choice.
