About Compounding
Compounded medications are prescribed by physicians, veterinarians, and other licensed providers, then prepared by trained, licensed compounding pharmacists. Compounding enables personalized treatment that offers a smart, effective alternative for patients whose needs aren't met by standard medications. These personalized treatments can reduce side effects and enhance therapeutic outcomes.
Compounding is a centuries-old tradition and a cornerstone of pharmacy practice. The demand for compounded medications is growing where standard commercial treatments aren't effective. Pharmacists are the only healthcare professionals extensively trained in chemical compatibility and alternative dosage formulations. While some pharmacies offer limited compounding services, IPS focuses exclusively on this practice because every patient is unique and deserves personalized, high-quality, patient-centered care.
Unlike 503B pharmacies that focus on compounding in large batches and outsourcing to other locations, IPS Compounding is a 503A pharmacy that compounds medications solely based on individual prescriptions.
