Manufacturers often stop producing medicines and dosage forms which are unprofitable to market due to low demand. This is what we specialize at in veterinary compounding. However, there is still the occasional need for such products. Perhaps a veterinary formulation is unavailable, and for one reason or another, the human preparation just won't do. We can optian the necessary pharmaceutical grade chemicals, and from them compund individualized dosage forms that may even be superior to the discontinued formulation for use in a particular animal.
The ideal preparation for veterinary compounding may need to contain several ingredients to treat a variety of symptoms. For example an animal may have skin problems that do not respond to as preparation. Yet, using three medicinesforms containers can be inconvinient and more costly. We can compound the needed concentrations of campatible medications into a single, easy-to-use preparation. Similaryly, we can prepare a medicated treat or other dosage from containing multiple drugs to simplify administration.
In addition to customized veterinary compounding medications, we offer a variety of unique dispensing devices to simplify administration and improve compliance. For example, oral and topical syringes provide a simple means of accurately measuring and administering medication, and are particularly useful when the dose is fluctuating. Accordion-like puffers are ideal for applying powder to difficult-to-reach areas like the ear canal. A dauber bottle is escellent for topical application, such as painting medication on a hoof. Sustained release dosage forms can also be compunded.
