Compounding
Pharmacy compounding is the art and science of preparing customized medications for patients, as opposed to standard prepared doses and delivery methods.
Known as a problem-solving medication, compounding can offer individual solutions for children, elderly, Hospice, and veterinary applications.
The goal of a compound pharmacist is to find an appropriate match for the medication’s properties, delivery method, and the patient’s taste preferences. This can be of particular importance for children and elderly patients. For toddlers, medication in the form of a tasty lollipop or gummy chewable would assure the child receives the full dose as opposed to a standard form, which too often is spit back out. For the elderly, capsules and tablets are often hard to swallow so liquid forms or a gel applied to the skin may be the best delivery method for them.
Compounding medications for the highest level of success in delivering the proper dosages to of patients is an art form that Bolton’s Pharmacy takes pride in showcasing.
Compounded Medications for Pets
People are not the only ones who benefit from compound medication. Giving a pet medications can be a frustrating task. We can make medications specifically compounded in forms such as ointments, pet treats or other flavored dosage forms that animals devour. Whether your pet is furry, scaly or feathered, a compounding pharmacist can develop a unique delivery system at exact quantities to ensure your animal is given the right dose, every time, without hassle.
