A patient consults with a healthcare provider who determines that a commercially available medication may not be suitable for the patient's needs. The provider writes a prescription for a compounded medication.
The compounding pharmacist reviews the prescription and prepares the medication according to the provider's specifications. This may involve mixing, combining, or altering the ingredients to create the desired formulation.
The pharmacist selects pharmaceutical-grade ingredients, which may include active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and other components such as flavorings, colors, or preservatives.
Depending on the medication, the pharmacist may use various compounding techniques, such as mixing, grinding, heating, or adjusting the dosage form (e.g., turning a pill into a liquid).
Throughout the compounding process, the pharmacist ensures the quality, purity, and accuracy of the compounded medication. This includes verifying the correct measurement of ingredients and checking for any potential contaminants.
Once the medication is compounded, it is packaged and labeled with relevant information, including the patient's name, the prescribing healthcare provider, dosage instructions, and expiration date.
