Care for your animal companion
Medication prepared with your pet in mind.
We work with veterinarians and animal caregivers to prepare prescribed medications in patient-specific strengths, flavours and dosage forms.
Different animals. Individual needs.
Species, size, health history and medication characteristics all influence the preparation. Your veterinarian identifies the prescribed treatment; we review the formulation.
Veterinarian prescribes
The veterinarian identifies the medication, strength and directions for the animal.
Pharmacist reviews
We confirm the formulation, ingredients and preparation requirements with the veterinary team as needed.
Caregiver receives guidance
Our team explains administration, storage and refill planning for the compounded medication.
What may be possible
- Customized strengths
- Veterinarian-prescribed strengths can be prepared when an appropriate manufactured product is unavailable.
- Flavour options
- When compatible with the medication and species, flavouring may make an oral preparation easier to administer.
- Alternative dosage forms
- Options may include liquids, capsules, treats or topical preparations depending on the prescription and formula.
- Hard-to-find medications
- Compounding may be considered when a suitable veterinary product is unavailable or discontinued.
Veterinary compounds require a valid prescription. Never give an animal a human medication unless specifically directed by a veterinarian.
