Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Have questions about compounding or what to expect? Here are answers to common inquiries.

Compounding is the art and science of preparing customized medications that are not available in standard commercial forms.

Whether you need a medication free of allergens (such as gluten, lactose, or dyes), a special dosage strength, or a different delivery method, our compounding team can provide a safe and reliable solution.

Many compounds can be prepared the same day at Laurel Pharmacy Clinic. For sterile compounds, delivery is typically 1–2 business days through our trusted partner.

Choosing compounded medications can help when:

  • A commercially manufactured drug is discontinued or unavailable
  • You need a medication in a different form (e.g., liquid instead of pill)
  • You are allergic or intolerant to certain fillers or ingredients
  • A child or pet needs a smaller dose or flavoured version
  • You require customized strength that isn’t available on the market
