VETERINARY COMPOUNDING AND NATURAL PET CARE
We can help your best friend feel better! We know that giving medicine to an animal can be pretty challenging sometimes! Whether you are working with household pets, exotics, or zoo animals, we can help. Veterinarians and owners of pets need to be creative when getting an animal to take their medication or when prescribing medications. We can provide you with dosage, flavor, and size appropriate medication solutions that are unique to the animal kingdom.
In cases where your pet may require more than one medication, we can work with the veterinarian to combine more than one drug into a single dose, making it easier and more convenient for the owner to administer it to their pet.Are you having a hard time finding medications? Occasionally commercial medications will become unavailable however the need for that medication is still present. When this happens we can work with the veterinarian to compound discontinued formulations in an individualized dosage form to suit the needs of your pet.
Some animal medicines are available in only one tablet size making it difficult for some animals to swallow. We can compound a dosage form that is just right for your pet. We can compound the medication into the smaller increments needed for small sized pets or concentrate a medication for larger animals. 
One of the most popular dosage forms that we have been compounding for our animal patients are the transdermal topical medications that are applied to the non-hairy (interior) of the animal's ear. We have had a very positive response to this dosage form. Instead of trying to give an animal a tablet that it won't swallow or a liquid that it spits out, the medication is delivered through the skin with excellent absorption. This makes it much easier for the owner to administer the medication to their pet and also lets them know exactly how much medication was absorbed. Other examples of dosage forms that we can compound are:
*A compounded medication requires a written prescription from a licensed veterinarian. Specialty Pharmacy does not compound or dispense any medications for use in food animals.
Let us flavor your animals medication! Animals appreciate flavors as much as humans do. We can flavor your pet's medication in a wide variety of flavors depending on the animal and taste preferences. How about beef, chicken, liver, or cheese for dogs? Salmon, tuna, and sardine for cats. Tutti frutti and banana for birds, apples and caramel for horses, raspberry for rodents, or whatever taste your pet prefers! We can also add color to medications to make them more appealing to specific animals. The options are endless! Next time you have a challenging medication problem with your pet or animal give us a call at 256-734-3146. We will tailor the flavor, dosage, form, and strength of medication to best suit your pet!
