Almost any medication can be compounded. Compounded prescriptions are intended for patients that require customized medication. Delivery vehicles that are often used for compounding include:
The Food and Drug Administration recognizes that the practice of pharmacy compounding is an important public health alternative for patients who require medication that is not commercially available, or not available due to drug shortages. For example, pharmacy compounding may be required if a patient needs a customized medication without a certain dye due to an allergy.
To ensure patient safety, compounding prescriptions must be prescribed by a licensed practitioner and compounded by a licensed pharmacist. Compounding pharmacies must also comply with the regulations set forth by State Boards of Pharmacy.

Some medications are commercially in dosage forms that you are unable to use either because of adverse reactions or difficulty to use. With decades of experience, we are a trusted compounding pharmacy Palm Springs, Greenacres, and Wellington has that can compound the needed medication (s) into different dosage forms like transdermal gels, topical sprays and/or powders, cosmetically appealing creams or ointments and so on.
If unable to take a medication that is available as oral for example we can compound it to be applied topically as a gel. This can be beneficial for patients specially if they are not oral candidates for a drug because of a previous condition like hepatic disease.
We can blend chemically compatible drugs into a single dosage to ease frequency of administration which in turn will improve adherence to the prescribed therapy.
Sometimes medications that have not been pulled off the market because of unsafe reasons may become temporarily unavailable or no longer commercially available. When that happens, we might be able to compound the needed medication using the active chemical ingredient.
We can compound a medication with a lower strength then what is commercially available to provide the desired therapeutic effects with a minimal risk for adverse reactions.
We can prepare unique formulas to exclude inactive or unnecessary ingredients like dyes, lactose, alcohol and preservatives.
