What Exactly is Compounding?

Here at Taylors Pharmacy, we’ve been compounding medications for nearly 30 years. Compounds are medications that have been tailored to meet the specific needs of each patient, whether it be a different dosage form, strength, or flavor.

One popular compounded human medication is bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). BHRT is a form of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) that uses hormones that are identical to the hormones produced by the human body. Each compound can be tailored to the exact needs and symptoms of the individual patient – there’s no such thing as one size fits all.

Another popular human compounded medication is pain management. Compounded pain management medications are often used to treat chronic pain conditions such as neuropathic pain, arthritis, and fibromyalgia. These medications can be formulated in a variety of dosage forms, such as creams, gels, and transdermal patches, which can be applied directly to the affected area for maximum effectiveness based on your needs.

And don’t forget about Fluffy! Animals are often prescribed compounded medication to make sure they get the right strength in the right form, so that it can be administered effectively. Conditions like kidney disease, hypothyroidism, or dry eye can all be treated with compounded medications successfully.

As an industry leader in compounding formulas, our customers know they can trust Taylors to create the highest quality compound at the most affordable price. If you are interested in learning more about our compounded medications, feel free to give us a call to learn more about your options.
