Compounding

Compounding is the art of preparing a custom drug using pure, pharmaceutical grade raw materials/products in agreement with a physician's prescription that is based on an individual patient's needs.  When working in the compounding profession, there is a certain "triad" that is followed, patient, prescriber, and pharmacist.  In the triad, a physician determines the patients needs, chooses a course of therapy, which may include a compounded medication.  A patient gets the dispensed medication after going through a thorough consultation.


We make prescriptions and nutraceuticals from the pure chemical powder to meet our patients unique needs. We are able to change dosage forms, make medications that are no longer commercially available, and combine compatible medications for easier administration. By starting with individual ingredients, we can make prescriptions more palatable and cut out fillers that patients may be sensitive to. Tastier, allergen-free medicine means better patient compliance!

PCAB accrediation

Specialty Compounding Services exceed USP 795 and 797 requirements for Pharmaceutical compounding in non-sterile and sterile preparations through a set of nationally accepted quality standards through PCAB accreditation.


Pharmacy Compounding Accreditation Board (PCAB) accreditation affords compounding pharmacists an unparalleled opportunity to demonstrate superior quality and safety in their compounding practices. Since PCAB was founded in 2004, only 130 pharmacies across the nation have achieved accreditation.
