The first thing that comes to mind when you say "compounded medicine" is what is it and why is it necessary and what's the difference between the two (from the medicines that we buy in a local pharmacy and compounded medicine). I had the privilege of attending the Apotheca Integrative Pharmacy event last February 12 at Legaspi Village Makati. and enlightened about what compounded medicine is and where to buy if your doctor prescribed you the medicine for compounding.
Pharmacy compounding is the art and science of preparing personalized medications for patients. Compounded medications are made based on a practitioners prescription in which individual ingredients are mixed together in the exact strength and dosage form required by the patient. It comes in the form of capsule, cream or gel, liquid or IM. It is often made in small quantities for the patient to be consumed, and you could wait or either pick it up provided you have the prescription for your medicine to be compounded.
Apotheca integrative Pharmacy the pioneering specialty compounding pharmacy in the country officially launched its wellness space that offers a wide variety of products that promote wholesome wellness and local goodness.
What I love about Apotheca Pharmacy is that aside from compounded medicines, you can buy your hard-to-find organic products in their store, like the Human Nature products, green teas, chia seeds, organic veggies and fruits, nutritional energy bars, juices, green teas, essential oils, and anything organic and is healthy, non gmo, gluten free products. While waiting for your compounded medicine, you can shop around and sip your coffee or buy that chia seeds for a healthy nutritious meal
Truly, this is the time for wellness and healthy living, to take proper care of our body.
