Human Compounding Options

 

Compounded Medication Types

  • Capsules are a way to get precise doses of medications not available through commercial avenues. They are also a good option if you have an allergy to a specific ingredient in a commercially offered product. 

  • Topical creams and ointments are a great way to treat pain, as well as to administer bio-hormonal medications. 

  • Many medications can be made into flavored or unflavored liquids taken orally. Children often find liquid medication more pleasant, infants and toddlers may need a smaller dose of a commercial medication, and many adults with difficulty swallowing pills prefer liquid suspensions. Flavors include marshmallow, bubblegum, watermelon, banana, and tutti-frutti. 

  • Troches are small, mint flavored tablets that are dissolved on the tongue that allow for better absorption of the medication. People with difficulty swallowing pills may find troches a good alternative. 

  • Suppositories are an excellent way to treat rectal conditions like hemorrhoids. For patients with problems taking oral medications, the rectal route of administration can be helpful as well.
