As parents, we've all been there; your child is sick and it’s time to medicate. You both know the medicine doesn’t taste great, and feeling sick isn’t making your child any less cranky about it. The battle begins: “Mommy, it’s yucky, I don’t want it. No! I don’t like it, Mommy!” Let us help you. With a doctor’s prescription, we can compound oral medications into pleasantly flavored suspensions, solutions, concentrates, freezer pops, “gummy bears” or lozenges. No more battles ending with the medicine on the floor, clothes, furniture, or Spot, the family dog! Speak with one of our pharmacists today.
VeterinaryYou're going on vacation and the kids want to take the family pet, so you go to your vet and she prescribes tranquilizers. The tranquilizers available at your favorite retail pharmacy only come in a certain strength, but your pet needs only half that dose. Compounding can make medicating animals much easier. Our pharmacists can prepare medicine in the exact dose your family pet needs. Since you no longer are cutting pills in half, this eliminates the possibility of over- or underdosing your pet. We also can compound veterinary medications into flavored chews which animals readily accept, so you can administer your pet’s prescription while keeping your fingers intact! Also available for various animals are capsules, topical or transdermal gels, and liquid preparations which are formulated to your pet’s needs at the specific request of the veterinarian.
