Kearney Park Compounding Pharmacy offers affordable prescription medications to customers quickly and correctly. Service includes compounding specialized medications, immunizations, refill reminders, and FREE delivery service. Simply, it is the act of creating personalized medications to fit your unique need as a patient. To do this, compounding pharmacists combine and process appropriate ingredie
nt(s) using various tools. Medications are compounded for a variety of reasons. Most common examples include:
Dosage form modification- oral drugs can be turned into a liquid, lollipop, gel, cream, etc. for those who can’t swallow, digest, or absorb
Tailored drug/dosage combination- we can put together exactly what you need in the right amount in a combination you won’t find anywhere else
Availability- you can still get a drug that is discontinued or in short supply
Removal of ingredients (any ingredients) – dyes, additives, or preservatives that you are allergic to can be removed. Sugar-free drugs can be created for diabetic patients
Cost-effectiveness- compounding often costs less since the pharmacist can create a generic version of a high-priced brand drug
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) - to correct disturbed hormone balance, the pharmacist offers bioidentical hormones that fit each individual’s unique body and hormone levels
Dental care- topical anesthesia and analgesics, mouth rinses containing antibiotics, lollipops for oral sedation, and lip balms for viral lesions are just a few examples of compounding specifically aimed at dental use
Veterinary care- drugs can be made smaller, bigger, stronger, weaker, tastier, and easier-to-use for animals
In most cases, you will find that a compounding pharmacy is different from the quick-stop, market pharmacies that tend to lack personal touch and caring. Given the nature of compounding, a pharmacist is meant to work closely with patients and physicians in order to meet a particular medical need every time. A more personal relationship with a pharmacist, combined with medicines customized just for you, will mean better compliance and better health; the ultimate goal of every health care provider.
