Compounding Pharmacy in Hawthorn

Fillers and dyes found in mass produced medicines can be removed or replaced and dosage levels adjusted to suit your individual needs. Medicines can be combined into smaller dose forms or combined to form one tablet or capsule.

Both forms dissolve slowly. Troches are a firm melting lozenge that are placed under the tongue to promote absorption as medication enters the bloodstream faster. Lozenges are used for topical treatment in the mouth or throat and can be made in the form of lollypops for children's medicines.

Liquids are absorbed quickly and medication optimisation is high. Tablets and capsules can be transformed into liquids and flavoured to suit patients who find swallowing difficult.

Creams, foams, gels, lotions and ointments are made to order. They treat a variety of conditions and are applied directly to various body parts.

These are inserted directly into a body orifice, where they dissolve to slowly release the medication to that area or to the rest of your body.
