VETERINARY COMPOUNDING SERVICES

HOW CAN A COMPOUNDING PHARMACY SUPPORT VETERINARIANS AND PETS?

Custom medication compounding allows veterinarians to broaden their prescribing abilities and to offer dosage forms specifically designed for the dose and delivery method to promote a successful treatment outcome. The goal of compounding for the veterinary patient is to enhance the veterinarian’s ability to treat patients in a more effective and efficient manner than may be available in a commercial dosage form.

It can be challenging to dose an animal with an oral medication. The Medicine Center Pharmacy can use sophisticated tools in our PCAB Accredited Compounding Lab to prepare, for example, a transdermal cream for administration to a cat’s ear, or flavored chewable treats that animals will accept readily.

Pharmacy compounding opens up numerous treatment options allowing a variety of medications and custom dosages incorporated into the chewable treats, capsules, transdermals, topicals, suppositories, thermoreversable gels, or liquid preparations can be formulated to the specific request of the veterinarian. No need to cut up tablets or open capsules and approximate the dose ever again. We can help prepare the right dose in the right form every time. No guesswork is required.
