Coumpounding pharmacies specialize in utilizing chemcial properties to create pharmaceutical products that enhance patient outcomes.  Compounded medications by definition contain pharmaceuticals in dosage forms and combinations not available through traditional prescriptive pathways.  Patients with special needs often require medication to be compounded due to a limitation in administration, such as a trans-dermal preparation (topical use) or suspension (for oral use) for a small child that is only available commercially as tablet.  Often, convenience is a large proponent of compounded medication. 

 

Several medicines can be combined into one injection, suspension, or capsule to reduce the number of commercial medicines in a patient's prescription requirements.  This factor can have a tremendous impact on patient compliance.  Even pharmaceutical companies have begun to combine two or more medications in a single dosage to increase patient response and compliance.  Let's not forget that patients with certain drug and food allergies can have their medications compounded without ingredients that elicit an allergic response.  In the past, some patients have been required to take medicines regardless of certain allergies and forced to endure and treat the side effects. 

 

There are many other benefits associated with compounded medicines.  Just think of the many ways a compounded injection of vitamins and amino acids can enhance the outcome of a patient struggling with energy and weight loss.  Many physicians specializing in the weight loss field have seeked to obtain such a product to offer a helping tool to make a difference in a patient's life-style change.
