In order to build a
reputation of excellence
with prescribers and
patients, one must be
able to trust that all the
ingredients going into
a compound are of top
quality, and that’s why I
order from PCCA … trust
and quality. They truly live
and breathe their motto of
‘lives depend on a job well
done.’ It’s great to know
they are in my corner.

Mix and match.
With unique delivery systems and devices, compounding is the perfect
fit for a range of medical specialties. Here are just a few.
HORMONE REPLACEMENT
THERAPY (HRT)
When it comes to medicine, one
size does not fit all. And that’s
especially true for HRT patients.
Compounding helps get the
balance exactly right.
PAIN MANAGEMENT
Compounding can be a real relief
for pain patients, with customized
strengths, transdermal dosing and
combination therapy.
SCAR, WOUND AND
SKIN CARE
Compounding brings together
skin-soothing bases and active
ingredients for beautiful results.
SPORTS MEDICINE
Whether it’s for muscle strains,
nerve pain or repetitive injuries,
compounding can create an
athlete’s personal best when it
comes to medication.
PEDIATRICS
Compounding helps take the
stress out of medicine time with
flavorings, strength/ingredient
variations and easy-to-give
dosage forms. It also allows for
allergen-free formulations for
autistic patients.
DENTISTRY
Compounding pharmacists work
with dentists to create custom
mouthwashes, preparations for
dry mouth, sedation medication
and more.
VETERINARY MEDICINE
Getting animals to take
medication is hard, and dosing
can be tricky. That’s why so
many veterinarians turn to
the customized power of
compounding.
Compounding delivery systems and devices
include oral syringes, capsules,
troches, popsicles, gummy gels, lollipops, transdermal gels, creams and sticks,
emollient creams, dauber bottles, lip balms, inhalation devices, nebulization devices,
ophthalmic preparations, otic medications, injectables, suppositories, rapid dissolve
tablets, tablet triturates, effervescent powders and foam bases.
