What is Compounding? |
| |
Compounding is the art and science of preparing customized dosage forms and products that are not commercially available. This gives a tremendous amount of flexibility for the physician to select the best therapy and route of administration for his/her patients.
We have the expertise and equipment not usually found in most pharmacies. Our highly specialized pharmacists serve only compounding physicians and their clients. We use only the purest pharmaceutical grade chemicals from only FDA approved supplies and the latest technology to deliver the highest quality product. Our state of the art ISO class seven clean room serves as the preparation area for our compounds.
Policies and procedures outline all of our preparation techniques based on current scientific principles and peer reviewed data. In addition, end-product testing and quality assurance procedures ensure that our compounded preparations are of the highest quality and purity possible. |

| Why Would I Need Compounded Preparations? |
| |
In most situations, we work closely with you and your physician to solve medication dosage and administration problems. Examples include the preparation of alcohol, casein, gluten, dye and preservative free formulations of almost any ingredient commercially available such as eye drops, oral liquids/suspensions, creams or capsules and tablets.
Extending the duration of action of medication (i.e.. sustained release), specific applications to small areas rather than systemic (whole body) absorption to avoid unwanted side effects, change a route of administration that is not commercially available, i.e.. Nasal spray or liquid suspension or sterile injection.
Unique products that are not commercially available, such as bio-identical (natural) hormone replacement therapy, pain management and or veterinary dosage forms.
Finally, because the commercial dosage forms are back-ordered, unavailable or simply discontinued by the manufacturer. These products work well but for one of the previous reasons are not available, we have the ability to obtain the raw chemical and formulate it into an ideal dosage form much like the commercially available product. |

| How Do I Obtain a Compounded Preparations? |
| |
In most cases, compounded preparations require a prescription from a licensed physician or practitioner. Your physician or practitioner can simply call, mail or fax in your prescription to our pharmacists for immediate compounding. If your physician/practitioner needs more information or consultation regarding a product or possible dosage forms, our qualified compounding pharmacists are available to consult.
If you have an existing compounded prescription at another pharmacy and would like to transfer your prescription to Park Pharmacy, simply call or e-mail us at pharmacist@parkrx.com, and we will call your pharmacy and make all of the arrangements to transfer your prescription.
In most cases, our compounding specialists can prepare your prescription and ship within 24 hours! Our dedicated staff is courteous and professional and eager to assist you with your information requests or compounded prescription.
