More and more patients today are turning back to compound pharmacies to create customized pain medications.

(firmenpresse) - More and more patients today are turning back to compound pharmacies to create customized pain medications. There are several reasons for this reemergence of compound pharmacies, but the major reason why so many people are turning to these types of pharmacies to get their pain medications is because they are able to create medications that are easier for the patient to take.

What are Compound Pharmacies?

Compound pharmacies are pharmacies that prepare customized medications for patients. This was the original type of pharmacy, where a trained pharmacist tailored customized medications for specific patients based on their needs. Most of the pharmacies that are found on street corners in today’s world are not compounding pharmacies. The typical pharmacy of today is mainly just a dispensary of pre-prepared medications. However, due to the fact that customized medications may be better for specific patients, especially those with specific medical conditions or allergies to certain medications, the compound pharmacy is making a comeback. Compounding Pharmacy can be especially useful for creating patient specific medications to help manage pain.

Why Choose a Compound Pharmacy?

Modern advancements in science and technology have allowed compound pharmacists to solve complex medical problems. Compounding pharmacists work closely with the patient’s doctor to specifically tailor a medication for the patient’s individual needs and problems. The results can be more effective medications with fewer side effects. This is especially true of medications that are designed to help patient’s manage pain. For starters, Compound pharmacists may be able to produce a pain medication that is available in a different dosage than what can be found on the shelf. Pain medications can vary in their effectiveness according to their dosage, but higher dosages also tend to have more unwanted side effects. Some patient’s would benefit from a smaller dosage of pain medication, but most ‘on the shelf’ medications for pain come in only 1 or 2 dosages. A Pharmaceutical compounding pharmacist however can specifically create a pain medication based on any dosage that a doctor recommends. This can help eliminate over-dosage and the side effects that may be associated with over-dosage.





More reasons to choose a Compound Pharmacy

Pain medications typically come in either capsule or tablet form. Taking an Effective pain management in pill form can sometimes irritate the patient’s stomach. They can also be difficult for some patient’s to swallow. A compound pharmacist can create pain medications in other forms to make it easier for the patient to take them. This can include suppositories, cosmeceuticals compounding, liquid medications, topical creams, oral gels, lozenges, mini and regular troches and injectable medications. In addition, many compound pharmacies can find chemical compounds for pain medications that cannot be found anywhere else. Major drug producing companies don’t spend money developing medications that are not in high demand, but if a patient requires one of these lesser known medications a compound pharmacist can create it for them. They can even help make the process of taking pain medications easier by altering their taste and they can create compounded pain medications for patients with specific allergy considerations.

Unternehmensinformation / Kurzprofil:

Pharmaceutical compounding is the mixing of drugs by pharmacists to fit a patient’s unique needs. Custom medications can eliminate elements of a compound that are dangerous or unnecessary to a patient and add elements that are specifically beneficial to a particular patient’s condition. While its practice diminished after 1950, the inability of mass-produced drugs to meet the needs of individual patients has spurred a resurgence since the 1990s. Compounding pharmacists like Harbor Compounding Pharmacy are helping to create unique preparations that resolve a host of challenges
