Editor's Notes
- Millions of Americans are prescribed medications daily.
- I know as a physician you have seen patients who don’t take medications for any number of reasons or they take the medication incorrectly. This of course means that patients can take longer to feel better.
- Custom medications can help make taking medications easier for patients.
- Some medications are just nasty and kids (and adults) just refuse to take them. Imagine taking medicine that has a great tasting ice cream flavor like raspberry, grape or banana. Your patients will more likely take the medication as prescribed when it has a flavor they like.
- Sometimes a medication just doesn’t come in the strength for the patient’s weight or you may want them to have a strength that doesn’t exist. We can compound it in the strength your patients need it in.
- Sometimes patients are allergic to dyes, fillers, or flavors. Did you know we can compound a medication and leave out the allergen?
- Kids and the elderly may have a difficult time swallowing a medication. In this case taking a medication in a different form is ideal. Did you know we can make medications in creams, gels, liquids, lollipops, gummy bears and lozenges?
- If you have patients that are taking a number of medications, then you may want to consider having your patients combine medications to keep them compliant. It’s easier than having them take several medications per day.
- Ever love a medication that was taken off the market or its in high demand and you can’t et it? Well @ Your Pharmacy Name we can often make the medication in the strength and dosage form you want (as long as the FDA didn’t remove it for health/ safety concerns)
- Custom medications can often be very cost effective for patients. Sometimes the compounded medication can be less expensive than the traditional one
