What is Compounding
Compounding is the art and science of preparing personalized medications to meet the specific needs of an individual patient. Unlike mass-produced, commercially available medications, compounded medications are created in response to a doctor's prescription and are carefully tailored to the patient's unique requirements. This practice allows us to provide custom solutions when standard medications may not be suitable or available.
