Pets need a pharmacist too...


Humans and their animals often have variations of the same diseases, including skin rashes, heart conditions, eye or ear infictions, cancer and diabetes. It is not uncommon for aveterinarian to prescribe medicaions for these dieseases. Pet medications can present unique challenges that can be dealt with through compouding.

Any pet owner who has tried will tell you that getting a pet to swallow a pill can be down right challenging. Cats are notorious for refusing to swallow pills and will eat right around one disguised in food. A compounding pharmacist can create custom dosage formlations including transdermal gels to be applied to a cat's ear to deliver medications.

The tale of the dose

Pets come in a variety of sizes, with large variations between animals even within one species like dogs. Doses of medication, therefore, can be very tricky. Compoudning medications allows the Vetrinarian the ability to dose your pet with exactly the dose your pet needs.

Liver Flavor, Please


Pets who refuse to take medication often do so because of the medication taste. Your compoudning pharmacist, working with you and your vetrinarian, can create flavored treats and dosage forms that pets will be more likely to take.
