Taking Care of Your Pets Veterinary Compounding ~ Making Medication a Treat for your Pet

The practice of pharmacy compounding is becoming a popular solution to veterinary problems. Compounding is the art and science of preparing customized medications for patients. Its resurgence in recent years provides valuable benefits to today's pet owners.

The Compounding Solution

Many pet owners may complain about how difficult it is to treat their pets with medications. Cats are notorious for refusing to swallow a pill, and will usually eat right around one disguised in food. Dosages can be very tricky with dogs - a medication that works for an 80-pound Golden Retreiver is far too much for a six-pound Yorkie to handle. Pet medications present unique problems that are often best dealt with through compounding.

Flavored Medicine

Our compounding specialist can prepare medicines into easy-to-give flavored dosage forms that animals will devour.

Pet Friendly Flavors:

  • Beef
  • Chicken
  • Tuna
  • Liver
  • Apple
  • Salmon
  • Chocolate
  • and many more!

Solving Dosage Problems

Just like their owners, animals are individual & unique. They come in different shapes & sizes, and as a result, not all commercially available medicines are appropriate for your pet. A veterinarian can prescribe a tuna flavored suspension with an amount that is exactly right for the pet's size and condition.
