Specialized Compounding Pharmacy Services
What Do You Look for in a Pharmacy?
Exceptional Convenience, Value & Service
At Carmichael's Drugs, we provide the best of all three. We offer affordable compounding services to patients and prescribers.
How Compounding Pharmacy Services Work
Carmichael's Drugs provides specialty pharmaceutical solutions that typical pharmacies cannot always provide. Our goal is to give you the highest level of quality, customized medications and customer service at unbeatable prices.
We will work with your doctor to create individualized medication for you. It is our goal to help you find the right medication and proper dose, in a form that works best for you. Compounding medications offer a number of benefits to patients.
Here at Carmichael's Drugs, we can create a medication for you based on your doctor’s prescription and your unique preferences. This generally includes making medication easier for you – or your pet – to take.
Compounded Medications Are Typically Made For:
- Pain Management
- Skin Problems
- Podiatry Needs
- Digestive System Issues
- Wounds & Scars
- Pediatric Dosages
- Pets
Anyone can use compounded medications, it’s really up to the doctor to determine what is best for their patient. If your doctor prescribes you a medication that is not commercially available, you can get it filled by a compounding pharmacy.
How Compounding Pharmacists Customize Medication
By compounding medications, patients have more options on how to take a prescribed drug. For instance, if you have trouble swallowing pills, compounding pharmacy services can provide the same medication in liquid form instead.
Here Are Some Other Customizations Compounding Pharmacists Can Make:
- The Medication Strength or Dosages
- Flavoring, Personalized to Your Own Preferences
- Removal of Ingredients That You Are Allergic to (Generally the Non-Essential Ingredients, Such as Dyes or Preservatives)
- Creating Discontinued Drugs
- Combining Several Medications Into One Capsule
- Pediatric Formulations
- Alternative Formulas of a Specific Medication, Such As: Topical Creams, Transdermal Gels and Suppositories
We also can deliver to a number of states, making our services more accessible for those who might not have a local provider.
Common Types of Compounded Medication Forms
Just like other prescriptions, your compounded medication comes with instructions from the pharmacy on how and when to take it.
Typically, a Compounded Medication Comes in the Following Forms:
- Liquid Formulations
- Capsules or Tablets
- Troches
- Gels, Creams, Lotions or Ointments
- Lollipops or Lozenges
- Mouthwashes
- Suppositories
Compounding Services Make Medications More Accessible
We work with patients, practitioners and veterinarians to provide the highest quality compounded medication we can at the most affordable price – including delivery services.
This ensures we can help more individuals, while supporting healthcare providers who need a custom solution for their patients.
Other Benefits of Using Compounding Services
- Expanded Treatment Options
- Help Reduce Side Effects
- Alternative Dosage Forms
- Provide Life-Saving Drugs That Are No Longer Available
More on Unavailable Medication Compounding Services
Often times a local pharmacy will stop providing a medication for a number of reasons.
We specialize in reproducing critical medications that have been discontinued. Our ability to produce medications that meet very specific strengths, sizes, and delivery forms allows us to accommodate a wide variety of pharmaceutical requests. This means we can usually fill any prescription- even if your local pharmacy has discontinued selling the medication.
Our Patients Health and Wellness Is What Matters Most
Carmichael's Drugs is here to meet your needs and serve beyond expectation. Our business is designed for today’s consumer, creating a more seamless and responsive patient experience online. Because we know you have better ways to spend your time than waiting in line at your local pharmacy.
Compounding Pharmacy Services is a Common Sense Approach
No two people are exactly alike. Even if you are diagnosed with the same health condition as your neighbor, for example, the medications prescribed might be the same prescription drug name but how it will affect each person will differ. The reason is somewhat matter-of-fact.
Each person has a physiological, biological, and neurological makeup that is unique to the individual. In addition, how one person responds to a medication will depend on a host of other factors. Why then would we assume that a one-size-fits-all approach to prescriptions and formulations be good enough and serve every patient best? We don't.
Instead, we offer compounding pharmacy services that meet each patient’s needs at the point where they are in their wellness journey. And when their health shifts, we're here to modify their medication so that it’s just right for them.
How Our Compounding Pharmacy Services Are Different
We currently serve patients and physicians in multiple states across the country. Once we fill your prescription, it will be mailed to your home after your physician approves it. If you are looking for our medication forms, you can print our custom compounding medication forms here.
