What Is Compounding?

Customized Medications for Personalized Care

At Lakeridge Pharmacy, we bring together time-honored compounding practices, modern medical advancements, and cutting-edge technology to create tailored medications that meet individual patient needs.

Compounding was once the foundation of pharmaceutical care before mass drug manufacturing became the norm. Today, the demand for customized medications is growing as healthcare providers and patients recognize that commercially available drugs often do not fit everyone's unique requirements.

For those who need a more precise dosage, an alternative formulation, or an ingredient modification, compounded medications can provide better outcomes.

What We Offer

Our expert compounding pharmacists specialize in preparing:

  • Personalized dosages to ensure the optimal strength and formulation for each patient.

  • Unique dosage forms such as transdermal gels, troches, lollipops, “chewies,” and more—options not found in standard commercial pharmacies

  • Allergy-friendly formulations free from gluten, dyes, sugar, lactose, alcohol, or other excipients that may cause adverse reactions.

  • Combination medications, allowing multiple compatible drugs to be integrated into a single dosage form for easier administration and improved adherence.

  • Unavailable or discontinued medications, ensuring continued access to essential treatments.
