Compounding For Pets
Pets can be pretty picky when it comes to taking medicine!
It’s also important to consider their specific breed, weight, and overall individuality when giving them medication.
We keep this in mind when compounding medication for pets. Working closely with veterinarians, we provide compounds that offer more options and uniqueness than what is commercially available.
Compounding options we offer include:
- Topical gel for hyperthyroidism
- Oral liquid for epilepsy
- Suspensions for rhabdomyolysis in horses
- Antibiotics and antifungals for infections
These can all be made into desirable treats so pets are more likely to take them.
We love interacting with animals at Pure Integrative Pharmacy! Seeing happy pets and pet owners brings us immense joy. As part of your family, your pets deserve the same advanced level of health care.
Compounding is the practice of preparing customized medication for patients.
Medication compounding for pets is becoming increasingly popular as veterinarians and pet owners recognize that animals require the same individualized care as people — and often suffer from similar medication challenges.
A caring vet, in partnership with Pure Pharmacy, can drastically improve your pet’s health by providing:
- Customized forms
- Precise dosages
- Pet-friendly flavours
Compounding solutions are available for nearly every type of pet, including:
Dogs • Cats • Horses • Rabbits • Birds • Reptiles • and more
