How to Get Compounded Medications

Compounding is achieved through an essential triad relationship – patient, physician, and pharmacist. First, the physician prescribes the custom medication. Second, the pharmacist compounds the necessary ingredients. Third, the pharmacist dispenses the medicine to the patient after a thorough consultation.

By talking with your doctor, you can decide if a custom-made (compounded) medication is right for you. If you need a compounded medication, your doctor will give you a written prescription. By working together with you and your doctor, Cambrian Drug Mart is able to create a medication that is suited to your specific needs.

How long does it take to fill a compounded prescription?
Each prescription is compounded differently. Some compounded prescriptions take a few minutes, others can take up to a few days. Therefore, we recommend that you contact us.
