CENTRE SQUARE PHARMACY

With the help of our compounding pharmacy, you can rest assured that you will receive medications specifically tailored to your specific needs and preferences. There are a number of reasons why the usage of compounding medicines can make your entire treatment plan much easier and more comfortable to follow in the long run, for instance:
 

• Personalised Medication: Centre Square Pharmacy can produce customised medication formulations for patients with specific needs that cannot be met by commercially available medicine, such as medicinal cannabis. Our compounding pharmacy and Officer chemists are able to work closely with healthcare providers and patients to develop medications that meet the unique needs of each individual. In addition, our expert compounding chemists can create medications in different dosages, forms, or flavours, or using alternative ingredients for patients with sensitivities.

• Different Methods of Administration: At our compounding pharmacy in Officer, our chemists can help patients who have difficulty swallowing pills by making the medication into another form, such as a liquid or topical cream. For instance, for a patient who might find it difficult to swallow pills and requires a medication that is only available as a pill, then a compounding pharmacy can create a transdermal cream or gel form of the medicine to apply to the skin. The gel allows the patient to receive the medication through the skin and avoid the difficulty of swallowing pills, thereby making it easier for patients to ingest their medication and makes the entire treatment plan more pleasant to follow.

• Allergy Prevention: A compounding pharmacy can assist you in noting your allergies (such as, lactose, gluten, dyes etc.) and sensitivities and produce medications that would work best for your system. For example, a patient with a peanut allergy may not be able to take a commercially available medication that contains peanut oil as an excipient. Moreover, our compounding chemists in Officer can also create dye-free medications and can add flavours to medicines to make them more palatable for patients. This can be especially helpful for patients who have food sensory issues and need medication that they will have an easier time consuming, thereby encouraging a regular intake in the process.

• Discontinued Medicine: With the help of our compounding Officer chemists, you can rest assured that we are able to prepare similar medications to the ones that have been discontinued by their manufacturer. This is done by utilising the medicine’s active ingredients and considering the patient’s medical needs and requirements to ensure the correct and most effective medication is provided.
