Compounding is the customized preparation of medications tailored to a provider’s exact specifications. Rather than dispensing a commercial drug in a fixed strength or form, our pharmacists formulate medications that meet the unique therapeutic, dosage, and delivery requirements of your patient.
Compounding is the customized preparation of medications to meet a patient’s specific needs. Unlike mass-produced medications, compounded medications are prepared by a licensed pharmacist or technician, combining individual ingredients in the exact strength and dosage form prescribed by your doctor. This approach is ideal for patients who need allergy-friendly formulas, unique dosage strengths, medications facing shortages, or alternative forms such as creams, liquids, or capsules.
To receive a compounded medication, you’ll first need a prescription from your doctor or healthcare provider. If your provider determines that a compounded medication is right for you, they can send the prescription directly to Ivy using our provider form or by calling us directly. Once we receive it, our team will carefully prepare your medication and contact you when it’s ready for pickup or delivery.
