You don’t need to be in crisis to check in on your mental health.
Stress, burnout, emotional fatigue - they show up quietly, but hit hard.

Let’s normalise:
• Talking about feelings
• Taking mental health leave
• Supporting others without judgment

Small conversations change outcomes.

👉 Reach out to a mate. Check in with yourself. No one has to go it alone.

Early detection is still one of the most powerful tools we have against breast cancer.

This month, we’re reminding all women, and those who care about them, to prioritise their health.

✔ Book a screening
✔ Know your family history
✔ Speak up if something feels off

It’s not just awareness. It’s action.

👉 Share this post. Book that check. Start the conversation.

Springtime often means sneezing, scratching, and inflamed skin, not just for people, but pets too.

Vets may need to adjust treatment plans to support pets dealing with environmental allergies, especially if standard formats or strengths aren’t working.

🐾 At Vet Dispensary, we help support personalised allergy care, safely and thoughtfully.

👉 Need a tailored solution for a reactive pet? Vets can upload prescriptions at vetdispensary.com.au.

👀 Think you know what compounding is? Let’s clear up the confusion and uncover a few things that might surprise you.

🧪 Compounding is the historical, science-based practice of medicines preparation.
💊 It is used in hospitals, aged care, paediatrics, and veterinary medicine
🚫 It is not related to alternative medicine or supplements
🔬 It is fully regulated under Australian law
✅ It meets a need when mass-produced medicines aren't suited for a patient

⚠️ Not all tablets are safe to split. Even if they have a line down the middle.

Some medications are modified-release or coated to protect your stomach. Splitting them could change how they’re absorbed, or even cause harm.

Healthcare professionals may request a custom-made lower strength instead, ensuring the patient receives the correct dose in a safe format.

📘 Always check with your pharmacist before altering medication.

👉 Need a different strength or format? Speak to your provider and visit https://greendispensarycompounding.com/ to learn more.

As pets age, their health needs grow, and so can their prescriptions.

💡 Smarter compounding supports better compliance.

Children and older adults are especially prone to refusing medication due to taste or texture.

When that becomes a barrier to care, prescribers may request modified preparations, such as flavour-masked liquids or alternate formats that make treatment easier to accept.

Taste shouldn’t be the reason someone avoids important treatment. Customisation helps improve adherence, comfort, and consistency.

🧾 For tailored formats, speak with your healthcare provider and ask about custom compounding.

Medicine compliance can be a stressful event for both the animal and their owner.

Vet Dispensary aims to prepare medicines in forms that are easier to administer, like transdermal gels or flavoured liquids.

🐾 At Vet Dispensary, we have a variety of format options suited to animals so that taking medications doesn't add stress or anxiety to the process.

Manufacturing delays, product discontinuations, or global shortages can sometimes leave patients without access to important medications.

In these cases, healthcare providers may request a medication to be specially prepared, following current guidelines and best-practice standards.

It’s not about reinventing the wheel; it’s about supporting continuity of care when ready-made options fall short.

🧾 Prescribers can reach out directly to discuss alternative preparation options during shortage periods.

For some patients, it’s not the active ingredient that causes side effects — it’s the additives.

Colours, preservatives, and flavouring agents can trigger unwanted responses in individuals with allergies, intolerances, or sensitivities. That’s why healthcare professionals may request custom-prepared medications made without certain excipients.

By removing non-essential components, the focus stays on the treatment, not the fillers.

📘 Always speak with your provider about any sensitivities you have to dyes, sweeteners, or preservatives.
