Compounded Medication Options for Individual Needs

Every Patient Has Unique Healthcare Needs.

Our specialized medication compounding services offer personalized solutions tailored to meet these specific needs. Compounding combines the art and science of preparing customized medications when an FDA-approved option is unsuitable or unavailable for a patient. Below are common reasons a prescriber may request a compounded preparation for an individual patient.

Every Patient Has Unique Healthcare Needs.

At Mountain Care Pharmacy, we recognize that each patient has unique healthcare requirements. Our specialized medication compounding services offer personalized solutions tailored to meet these specific needs. Compounding combines the art and science of preparing customized medications when an FDA-approved option is unsuitable or unavailable for a patient. Below are common reasons a prescriber may request a compounded preparation for an individual patient.

Customized Formulations

Not all patients can tolerate commercially available medications due to allergies, sensitivities, or dosage limitations. Our expertise in compounding allows us to adjust dosages, remove unnecessary ingredients, and combine multiple medications into a single dosage form, providing an individualized option when appropriate and prescribed.

Enhanced Medication Accessibility

We understand that some patients have difficulty swallowing pills or require alternative delivery methods. Compounding enables us to prepare medications in various forms, such as liquids, topical creams, and gels, when a prescriber determines a different dosage form is needed for an individual patient.

Combination Therapy

Patients in hospice, long-term care, and specialty clinics often require multiple medications to manage complex health conditions. Compounding allows us to combine compatible medications into a single dosage form, simplifying a regimen at the prescriber’s direction, for example, combining compatible ingredients into a single dosage form for an individual patient.

Unique Medication Needs

Some patients require specialized formulations not available commercially, such as customized hormone replacement therapies, pain management medications, and wound care preparations. Our compounding pharmacists work closely with healthcare providers to develop individualized medications that meet a prescriber’s patient-specific instructions when a commercially available FDA-approved product is unsuitable or unavailable.

Our Commitment Is To Provide Exceptional Care By Utilizing Innovative Solutions Like Medication Compounding.

Our compounding services provide personalized options when a commercially available, FDA-approved drug is unsuitable or unavailable for a patient. Preparations are made by licensed pharmacists and pharmacy technicians in accordance with applicable regulations and professional standards. Compounded drugs are not reviewed or approved by the FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality.

To learn whether a compounded preparation is appropriate for your situation, speak with your prescriber or contact our pharmacy team. We can coordinate with your clinician on individualized, prescription-specific instructions.
