We follow the Canadian Federal and Provincial Standards for Pharmaceutical Compounding and have been producing high quality compounded preparations since 1910.
Unique Medication Strengths
A medicine may be available only in one or two strengths. However, your doctor may find that the best dose is not one of those. We can prepare a dosage form that will contain whatever amount your doctor orders. You don't have to take too much medicine which could cause adverse effects, or too little which may not work for you.
Unavailable Medications
Pharmaceutical companies may stop making products for which there is a limited demand. If we can obtain the medicine in its chemical form, we can compound it for you.
Unique Dosage Forms
Medicines are often available only in tablets or capsules. But infants and individuals with swallowing difficulties may need a liquid, suppository or other dosage form. We can make these dosage forms to contain the medicines people need.
Bad Tasting Medicine
Some individuals will not take a medicine because of bad taste. This is a special problem when a medicine must be taken for several months or years to control a chronic health problem. We can prepare dosage forms in flavours that people like. We have 40 different flavours (from peppermint to orange-guava-melon).
Veterinary Compounding
Animals, like humans, require specialised pharmaceutical services. We can create exact doses based on your pet’s size and weight, create special injections and also formulate special eye drops that can be used to treat your pet.
Allergies
Commercial medicines may contain flavours, preservatives, dyes and binders. If a patient is allergic to any one of these ingredients, using that medicine could result in unpleasant or life-threatening reactions. We can prepare medicines that are free of materials to which a patient is known to be allergic.
