Compounding

At Neighbourhood Pharmacy, we offer services to tailor medications to suit your individual needs. We work closely with you and your doctor to help solve medication problems and create treatments that are right for you.

Why choose compounded medications?

Compounded medications are made especially for you, rather than mass-produced. They are prepared to meet your specific health needs and can be customised in ways that standard medicines may not allow, such as different strengths, forms, or methods of taking the medicine.

Benefits of compounded medications include

Personalised treatments Medicines can be made to reduce stomach upset, improve taste, or make them easier to swallow.
Custom dosing Medication strength or form can be adjusted when standard options are not suitable for you.
Allergen-friendly options Medicines can be prepared without ingredients like certain flavours, dyes, lactose, gluten, or sugars if you have allergies or sensitivities.

Your pharmacist can talk with you and your healthcare provider to see if a compounded medication may be a helpful option for your care.
