Compounding
Non-Sterile Compounding
Compounding is the combination of art and science with current medical knowledge and state-of-the-art technology, allowing highly specialized professionals to prepare uniquely customized medications to meet the specific needs of each patient. Compounding is how the profession of pharmacy began and was the only way of providing prescription medications before pharmaceutical companies began mass production.
Anchor Compounding Pharmacy regularly prepares

- Medications without certain excipients such as lactose, sugar, dyes, or alcohol.
- Combinations of various medications into a single dosage form for easier administration or application, potentially reduced side effects, and improved compliance.
- Medications that are not commercially available.
