Compounded medications are custom-made prescriptions that are tailored to meet an
individual patient’s needs. These medications are created by licensed pharmacists who
combine, mix, or alter ingredients to produce a medication that is designed specifically for a
patient’s unique condition. Here are some of the benefits of compounded medications:
- Can be designed for children, older adults, animals, and other everyday uses
- Allergen avoidance/food sensitivity options
- Can provide access to discontinued medications you can no longer get
