What is Prescription Compounding?

You know the saying, "no two snowflakes are the same?" Well that's true for people too. You're unique! While most prescriptions prepared by drug manufacturers work for most people, they may not work for everyone. This is why compounding medications is such an essential piece in the practice of pharmacy.

When you receive your compounded prescription you can rest assured that the medication was prescribed by your primary health care provider and was made specifically for you by one of our highly trained team members in our onsite Austin compounding lab.

Compounded medications can be prescribed for a variety of reasons such as:

• Formulating difficult-to-swallow pills into tasty liquids
• Combining multiple medications into a single compound or dose
• Preparing medication compounds that are not commercially available
• Formulating medication compounds in an allergen-free formula
