Question 2

Do I need a prescription for a compounded medication?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A written prescription from a licensed practitioner or veterinarian is required for compounded medications. Compounding pharmacists work together with both practitioners and their patients to develop a customized therapy for each patient.

Question 3

What are the reasons a medication is compounded?

Accepted Answer

A patient may have a specific need that a commercially available option cannot fill. Your genetic makeup, disease state, disabilities and many other reasons may make compounded medication a good option for you. Reasons include: side effects of oral medications, higher concentrations of medication at the treatment area, combinations of medications, drug interactions, medication delivered to low blood supply areas, customized doses, topical application to avoid oral use, different dosage forms/route of administration, and flavoring to make medications more palatable.
