A Different Way To Supplement

Supplements are designed to provide vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and specific compounds missing in diets. Today, 1 in 2 American adults take at least one supplement. The need for supplements has also brought about thousands of brands and options made in mass. But like most medications, supplements aren’t one-size-fits-all. Instead, through a compound pharmacy, supplements are customized to give maximum benefits.

What is compounding?

Most medications, supplements, and even beauty products are formed with the concept of compounding. Compounding takes base ingredients to create medicines in a particular form. A compound pharmacy makes a specific medication for patients with specific needs. Retail pharmacies will have a drug designed en masse for millions of customers. However, compounding helps patients get customized remedies rather than choosing the closest available option.

Create your own multivitamin

Statistics show that at least 35% of adults who take supplements take at least 2 types. Some would like to take even more, but the cost and effort can deter supplementation. With compounding, a patient can create a custom multivitamin. Instead of taking 4 or 5 supplements, a pharmacy makes one pill with all the needed vitamins and minerals. Combining supplements into one dose improves compliance at a reduced cost.

Compounding provides the correct dosage, every time

Compound pharmacies can adjust the dosage of each vitamin or mineral. With vitamins and minerals, more is not always better. Vitamin overdosing is a common concern that can sometimes cause long-term symptoms. For instance, a high dosage of vitamin C can cause nausea, stomach cramps, and diarrhea. Vitamin D toxicity is also possible. Compounding incorporates the correct dosage every time.

Reducing side effects and allergies

Some supplements or multivitamins can cause unwanted side effects with medication. Others may trigger allergies due to certain hidden ingredients. With compounding, the possibility of unwanted combinations reduces significantly. The patient knows what’s in the supplement and can benefit from each dose confidently.

Supplements in a form you can trust

Compound pharmacies make medication and supplements to meet individual needs. For instance, someone may prefer the supplement in liquid form. Others need supplements that are gluten-free, vegan, halal, or kosher. With compounding, patients know what’s going into the body.

Consider compounding for your supplemental needs

Taking a store-bought supplement sounds simple and convenient. However, famous brands do not always meet the needs of all customers. Pharmacists in compound pharmacies can listen to the needs of patients and formulate individual plans. Buying from a compound pharmacy ensures the maximum benefit from the supplement with few drawbacks. Pharmacists often recommend swapping out store-bought supplements for compounding if available.
