Patients
Often times your doctor will determine that the best treatment for you is through compounded prescription medications. Therefore, the next step is to find a compounding pharmacy. ABC Compounding Pharmacy is able to compound that prescribed medicine to meet your specific needs. Sometimes, patients require something different than the standard application. Consequently, manufactures rarely give thought to those who may have special needs such as a sensitivity to synthetic medications. Likewise, they may not think of physicians who need to prescribe in lower dosages.
Comfortability For Chemotherapy
Patients enduring cancer therapies often benefit from the aid of compounded medications. As a result, traditional pain medications can be compounded into several forms. Among which include gels, ointments, or creams. These products are useful for isolated therapy treatment. Some chemotherapy patients suffer from sore throats and can have painkillers administered through flavored lollipops in lieu of larger pills. In fact, compounded solutions can be a much more comfortable way to administer medications.
Medications Are Available
Often times research has developed new treatments for which there is no manufactured dose commercially available. Furthermore, production for a certain medication may stop for a variety of reasons. Most of which include low sales or market size. If the manufacturer doesn’t produce a drug, it is likely due to profitability issues. Therefore, your retail pharmacy may not stock it. With a physicians consent, we can compound these type of unavailable medications into a unit dose that will meet your specific need.
