What Is the Difference Between a Compounding Pharmacy and a Regular Pharmacy?

Compounding pharmacies and regular pharmacies use the same medications. The main difference is that compounding pharmacies combine the medications on-site. 

But there are a few other differences. For example, compounding pharmacies do the following:

• Customized dosages. Compounding pharmacies can create a special dosage of medication based on your medical condition, age, height, weight, and gender. 
• Different forms. Your regular pharmacy may only offer your medicine in pill form, but maybe you have trouble swallowing pills. In this case, you should look for a compounding pharmacy near you that can create different forms of a medicine, such as capsule, liquid, powder, ointment, or cream.
• Specialty medications. If you need medication for a child or pet, you know how hard it can be to administer the medication. A compounding pharmacy can make things less stressful by making the medication easier to administer or even able to be hidden in food or drink.

Is Compounding Medicine Expensive?

Compounded medicines can be slightly more expensive than regular medications, because they are created using multiple types of medicines. Even if you have insurance, some medications are not covered, and the ones that are often have restrictions. 

There are two factors that determine the cost: labor and ingredients. This varies from one medication to another. One medication may cost $20, while another may cost $200. 

Find a compounding pharmacy near you and discuss your situation. Many pharmacists can help you save money by offering different options that might cost less.
