If your BHRT prescription is not a pharmaceutical medication, we will fax it to a specialized pharmacy known as a compounding pharmacy. All compounding pharmacies are required by law to meet the requirements set by the resident state boards of pharmacy.

Compounded medications are made from pure, FDA-approved hormones and are made into individualized dosages. Compounding options include sustained-release capsules, creams, gels, lozenges, or pellets.

Not all compounding pharmacies are equal — they can vary in terms of the expertise of the pharmacist making your medication, quality control, customer service, and price. Ideally, the compounding pharmacy you use should be accredited by the Pharmacy Compounding Accreditation Board (PCAB).

The PCAB assures consumers that the compounding pharmacies it certifies have demonstrated superior quality and safety in compounding practices. Our office has extensive experience with several compounding pharmacies and will be happy to recommend one for you.
