WHAT IS COMPOUNDING?
A compounding pharmacy, like Alchemi Compounding Pharmacy, offers a specialised approach to medication that goes beyond the usual methods. Essentially, compounding involves crafting personalised medications to meet the unique needs of each patient. Instead of the one-size-fits-all approach of mass-produced drugs, compounding pharmacies adjust formulations to suit individual requirements as prescribed by an authorised medical professional, ensuring a tailored approach to healthcare.
As outlined by SAHPRA (South African Health Products Regulatory Authority), pharmaceutical compounding is the process of combining, mixing, or altering drug ingredients to create a prescription medication specifically for an individual patient. This process is done by a licensed pharmacist who is skilled in both the science of compounding and dispensing.
What is Compounded Medicine?
Compounded medications are custom-made by a South African Pharmacy Council Registered Pharmacist to meet individual needs. These tailored formulations address specific requirements, such as allergies to certain ingredients, dosage adjustments, or the need for alternative forms of medication, like a liquid instead of a capsule. At Alchemi, we are dedicated to meeting these unique patient needs and are committed to providing the essential medications that help individuals lead healthier and happier lives.
