Compounding
At Alamo Ranch Pharmacy We Provide Individualized Care Through Compounding
Veterinary
Giving your pet medicine can be a real challenge. With our compounding solutions, we can make it a whole lot easier. By transforming your pet’s medicine into delicious treats, flavored liquids, or hypoallergenic creams that can be applied to their ears, giving medicine can now be as easy as a walk in the park.
Pediatrics
Being a parent is a full-time job with no days off. And when your child needs medicine, it becomes so much harder. Whether it is your baby or young child, we can help! With our compounding solutions, we can reshape your child’s medicine into a sugar-free, flavored lollipop, gummy bear, or liquid that delivers the exact dose your child needs to feel better.
Oral Care
Going to the dentist can cause anxiety and pain. With our compounding solutions, we can customize medicines to help you relax before going to your appointment and to make you feel comfortable after. We can also make special mouthwash, lollipops, lozenges, oral sprays, toothpaste, and lip balms to treat canker sores, dry mouth, mucositis, gum disease, bacterial and fungal overgrowth on the tongue, jaw clenching, bad breath, and more.
Discontinued Medicines
As new medicines are developed and approved by the FDA, some old medicines are stopped being sold. Many of these medicines are still safe, effective, the only medicine that works for some individuals. With our compounding solutions, we can recreate those medicines that are no longer commercially available and make them especially for you.
Dermatology
You should always feel comfortable in your own skin. With our compounding solutions, we can make unique cleansers, creams, lotions, ointments, and serums to restore your skin’s natural feel and appearance.
Anti-Aging
Aging is a natural part of life that cannot be avoided. But just because you’re getting older doesn’t mean you can’t continue to look great. With our compounding solutions, we can help slow-down the physical effects of aging, rejuvenate your appearance, and bridge the gap between how you feel and how you look.
Vitamins & Dietary Supplements
Vitamins, minerals, and other dietary supplements are not held to the same manufacturing standards as pharmaceutical medicines. They are often made with low quality ingredients and cheap fillers. With our compounding solutions, we can make unique combinations of these natural medicines using the highest quality of pharmaceutical grade ingredients and make them specific to your needs.
Drug Shortages
At times, medicines can be in short supply. This can happen because of problems with manufacturing or distribution. With our compounding solutions, we can recreate the commercially available medicine and make sure your treatment goes uninterrupted.
Compounding Is an Art and a Science
Compounding requires creativity and imagination as well as accuracy and precision. It involves many meticulous steps, including calculating, measuring, weighing, mixing, stirring, pouring, diluting, heating, cooling, shaping, and testing. To ensure your compounded medicines are consistently safe and effective, our experienced team of pharmacists and technicians use the highest quality of pharmaceutical grade ingredients along with state of the art equipment and techniques. We work directly with your doctor and healthcare team to tailor every aspect of your medicine to your specific health needs. By doing so, we aim to maximize the therapeutic benefits of the medicine, make it easy for you to use it, and eliminate any unwanted side effects.
