The tradition of compounding is alive and well at Apothecary Pharmacy. What is compounding? Well, it is achieved through a triad relationship between the physician, pharmacist, and patient. Essentially, the physician prescribes the medication. Then the pharmacist takes the necessary ingredients, compounds them, and dispenses the medication to the patient after a thorough consultation. This enables patients to receive the type of personalized care they deserve and  allows independent community pharmacists the opportunity to provide superior patient-oriented service.

Many patients may wish to receive a medication without dyes or preservatives. Or, the physician may wish to prescribe a medication in a strength that is not commercially available. Compounding allows you many different choices that are custom-made for you.

• capsules
