Physicians often prescribe medications that require compounding. Compounding is a process where a pharmacist can take a commercially available drug and turn it into an alternate dosage form. Examples of people needing compounded medications are infants, persons with allergies, persons who are unable to swallow tablets or capsules, and animals.
All pharmacists are able to compound by virtue of their license; however, many choose not to do so because of inadequate staff, time or materials. Debbie and Bryan have received extra training in compounding through Gallipot.
