Services
- Compounding Services
The Discount Pharmacy Group is excited to offer customers an alternative to ready-made medications, via our compounding lab at Macquarie Discount Pharmacy.
Pharmacy compounding is the art and science of tailor making medications to suit the individual needs of the patient. This means that medications can be tweaked to address the symptoms and conditions of the person being treated.
Compounding also means that we at Discount Pharmacy Group can provide you with alternative dosage forms rather than just regular tablet. We can make your personal medication into capsules, liquids, troches and suppositories, nasal spray, topical preparations and we can also change the flavour of medications if your child has difficulties with ready-made medication flavour.
There are a wide range of health conditions that can be treated by compounding, including pain management, Hormone replacement therapy, cosmeceutical and anti-ageing, dental needs, paediatric concerns, sports medicine, skin conditions such as aczema and psoriasis, as well as veterinary compounding for your very loved pets and animals.
Visit any of our Discount Pharmacy Group locations and speak to one of our helpful and friendly Pharmacists about compounding solutions for you and your family.
