Compounding is one of the pillars of new drug development. Most medications have gained widespread usage throughout the entire medical community thanks to the practice of pharmaceutical compounding and the compounding pharmacist. Every major pharmaceutical company ever in existence or currently operating started in a compounding pharmacy with a compounding pharmacist.
Without the practice of pharmaceutical compounding and compounding pharmacists none of the drugs we have today would have been discovered. This facet of pharmacy has been the greatest developer of drugs and the most positive influence within the entire allopathic, osteopathic, naturopathic and homeopathic, medical communities. Pharmaceutical compounding is a branch of pharmacy that continues to play the crucial role of new drug research and development.
Doctors often prescribe compounded medicines for patients with unique health needs, because they are able to tailor a prescription to each individual. Compounding preparations are especially prevalent for:
- Patients requiring limited dosage strengths and dosage forms (i.e., infants)
- Those with allergies to certain ingredients in manufactured drugs
- Veterinary medicine
- Pediatrics (i.e., making a medicine more palatable to children with flavor additives)
- Home health care
- Hospice patients
- Patients who need drugs that have been discontinued by pharmaceutical manufacturers because of low profitability
