The efficacy of any formulation is directly related to its preparation, which is why the selection of your compounding pharmacy is critical. Experience and ingenuity are important factors in a compounding pharmacist. When tweaking a formula or developing a unique preparation, the compounding pharmacist must consider physical and chemical properties, the active ingredient and excipients, solubility, tonicity, viscosity, and the most appropriate dosage form or device for administering the needed medication. Our compounding pharmacists have access to the latest medical knowledge, state-of-the-art equipment and high quality ingredients to ensure that the medicine is effective and of a high quality.
We have three full-time compounding pharmacists, all highly experienced in the compounding field.
