The Importance of Quality and Safety in Compounded Medications at Queen People’s Pharmacy

What You Need to Know About Compounding

Traditional medications are available in standardized dosages and forms. It might not always be the best option for every patient to address their medication needs. For example, some individuals may have difficulty swallowing pills or may be allergic to specific chemicals in a medication. This is where compounding pharmacies come in. Their speciality is creating medications that are specifically designed to meet the needs of individual patients. Queen People’s Pharmacy in Calgary is one such pharmacy that offers compounding services and our pharmacists are skilled in developing unique formulations, such as those that aren’t sold in stores.

How Queen Peoples Pharmacy Helps You with Compounding Solutions

Queen Peoples Pharmacy provides personalized prescription solutions through compounding, which goes above and beyond the usual pharmacy experience. We create medications that are specially tailored to your particular requirements while addressing the limitations of commercially accessible medications.

Here’s how we can help you,

• Personalized Doses and Forms: We can change the strength of your prescription to suit your needs, making sure you get the right amount for your health. If swallowing pills is challenging for you, we can also transform medication into more manageable forms like creams, liquids, or lozenges.

• Addressing Allergies and Sensitivities:  We are able to develop compounded versions of commercially available drugs that are free of allergens and fillers if you have allergies or sensitivities to any of the ingredients.

• Discontinued Medications: We combine an alternative medication based on the original formula if the manufacturer has stopped producing a medication that you depend on.
