We know that Luna and Max are more than just pets; they are members of the family. When they need medications, we can minimize the potential trauma your pets by compounding the needed medications into a more concentrated form or a more appealing form.
Our goal is to assist the veterinarian in improving compliance and quality of life for their patients and clients.
Why use Drug Compounding?

Why use Drug Compounding?
- Veterinarians just can’t get everything they need off the shelf. Cats, for example are notoriously finicky, and that goes for taking medicine as well. Many commercially available medications aren’t flavored for veterinary use, or available in strengths needed for small animals or birds, so pet owners need an alternative, such as tuna fish flavored medication. In some cases, special gel has to be applied to deliver the medication.
- Compounded medications are easier to use and actually save patients, money and a lot of frustration.
- Farmers, ranchers and pet owners get healthier animals because the animals are taking proper doses at the proper times for the best treatment results.
- We can compound dosage forms in various ways to suit specific animal needs, from oral liquids to rectal suppositories, to transdermal gels and high dose capsules.
- Our staff can combine the prescribed medication with the most likely desirable flavor for a particular animal.
- We can compound any dosage or concentration necessary to fit a specific need, enabling you to administer the exact dosage necessary instead of settling for what is commercially available.
- We can compound prescriptions that are preservative-free or dye-free, or use alternative “fillers”, eliminating potential allergens.
- If an animal has sugar intolerance, we can compound syrups with non-caloric sweeteners, aiding in blood glucose control.
- We can generally custom-compound a discontinued or unavailable medication, enabling otherwise limited treatment options.
