Custom Medications for Your Pet’s Unique Needs

At our compounding pharmacy, we understand that every animal is different, and standard medications may not always be the best solution. Compounding allows us to create customized medications tailored to meet the specific needs of your pets.

Commonly Treated Conditions

Compounded medications can help manage a variety of conditions in pets, including:

  • Chronic pain (arthritis, injury recovery)
  • Skin conditions (allergies, infections)
  • Gastrointestinal issues (nausea, diarrhea)
  • Seizure disorders
  • Hormonal imbalances (Cushing’s disease, Addison’s disease)
  • Cardiovascular conditions
  • Behavioral issues (anxiety, aggression)

By working closely with your veterinarian, we can adjust dosages, change the form of the medication (such as from pill to liquid), or add flavors that make it easier for your pet to take their medicine. These approaches may help with administration, compliance, and palatability.

Common Classes of Medications

Some of the most frequently compounded medications for animals include:

  • Anti-inflammatories for pain relief and inflammation
  • Antibiotics for infections
  • Antifungals for skin and internal fungal infections
  • Anticonvulsants for seizure management
  • Hormonal therapies for conditions like hypothyroidism or adrenal dysfunction
  • Sedatives and anxiolytics for managing stress or anxiety-related behaviors
  • GI medications to treat nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
