Compounding &
Specialty Drugs

Compounding is the practice of preparing customized medications to fit the unique needs of a patient. We understand that no two patients are physiologically the same. And, for that reason, there is no single medication that achieves optimal results across the board. With the prescriber’s authorization and calling at (443) 949-8373, Arnold Pharmacy can custom-prepare medications in a variety of unique dosage forms, including:

 

  1. Custom Flavoring – Custom flavoring is available for most oral medication forms, and unique delivery systems may be employed to help give medication to finicky patients.

  2. Capsules – Medication can be compounded into customized capsules, especially in cases where an alternate strength is required or to omit potential allergens or irritants, such as dyes, preservatives, or gluten.

  3. Oral Liquids – Many medications can be compounded as oral liquids for those patients who have difficulty swallowing tablets and capsules.

  4. Troches & Lollipops – Troches and lollipops are used to keep drugs in the mouth when local action is needed there. Troches may also be placed under the tongue and allowed to dissolve, which allows the medication to enter the bloodstream quickly and easily.

  5. Suppositories – Patients who cannot take medications orally are ideal candidates. By melting or dissolving into the body cavity, they allow the medication to pass quickly into the bloodstream.
