Your Guide to Personalized Medication
Every person’s health journey is different. Yet most medications are made in standard doses and forms that may not suit everyone. That’s where compounding comes in.
At Jad Family Pharmacy, compounding enables our pharmacists to create customized medications tailored to your specific needs. Whether you need a smaller dose, a different flavor, or a formula that avoids certain ingredients, compounding helps make your treatment plan more comfortable and effective.
What Is Compounding?
Compounding is the process of preparing personalized medications. Instead of filling a pre-made product from a manufacturer, our pharmacists carefully combine individual ingredients to create a medicine that matches your prescription.
Think of it like tailoring a recipe. The same way a cook adjusts ingredients to meet someone’s taste or dietary needs, we adjust your medication to fit your body and health goals.
How Does Compounding Work?
When your provider prescribes a compounded medication, our pharmacy team follows their directions to prepare it with exact precision.
- Adjust dosages to match your treatment plan
- Create different forms, such as creams, troches, or dissolving films
- Make flavor changes that make medicine easier to take
- Remove ingredients that could cause allergies or discomfort
Each prescription is prepared in a controlled environment, utilizing high-quality ingredients and adhering to strict safety standards to ensure consistency and care.
