How compounded medications can help your furry family members

Why Choose Compounded Medications for Your Pet?

Standard commercial medications work for many pets, but sometimes your pet needs something different. Compounded medications offer solutions tailored specifically to your pet's individual needs.

Whether your pet has difficulty taking pills, needs a specific dose not commercially available, or has allergies to certain ingredients, our compounding services can help make medication time less stressful for both you and your pet.

Our compounding services offer numerous advantages to make medication time easier and more effective.

Customized Flavoring

Medications can be flavored to appeal to your pet's taste preferences, such as chicken, fish, or beef.

Precise Dosing

Get the exact dose your pet needs, especially important for very small pets or those needing careful dose adjustments.

Alternative Forms

Choose from liquids, transdermal gels, flavored treats, or tiny capsules based on what works best for your pet.

Allergen-Free Options

Medications without dyes, preservatives, or specific ingredients that may cause allergic reactions in your pet.

Combined Medications

Multiple medications can be combined into a single dose, reducing the number of times you need to medicate your pet.

Medication Availability

Access to medications that may be commercially unavailable or discontinued but still needed by your pet.

We Understand Your Struggles

Every pet owner has faced challenges when it comes to giving medications. You're not alone, and we're here to help.

The Morning Medication Battle

"Every morning was a struggle. My cat would hide when she saw me coming with her thyroid pill. I'd find her under the bed, and then the wrestling match would begin. We were both stressed and unhappy."

Our solution: A transdermal gel applied to the inner ear, no pills needed. No more hiding, no more stress.

Multiple Medications, Multiple Times

"My senior dog needed five different medications, some twice daily, others three times. I was constantly checking the clock, and he was getting tired of all the pills."

Our solution: Combined compatible medications into single, flavored treats given just twice daily. Simplified for both pet and owner.

We've helped thousands of pet owners transform medication time from a daily battle into a simple, stress-free routine. Your pet's comfort and your peace of mind are our priorities.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions from pet owners about compounded medications.

Are compounded medications safe for my pet?

Yes, all our compounded medications are prepared in our state-of-the-art facility following strict quality control protocols. We use pharmaceutical-grade ingredients and each preparation undergoes rigorous testing to ensure safety and efficacy.

How do I know if my pet needs a compounded medication?

Your veterinarian will determine if your pet would benefit from a compounded medication. This might be recommended if your pet needs a specific dose not commercially available, has difficulty taking standard medications, or has allergies to certain ingredients in commercial products.

How long do compounded medications last?

Each compounded medication comes with a beyond-use date (similar to an expiration date) that indicates how long the medication remains stable and effective. This date is determined based on the specific formulation and ingredients used. Always check the label for this information.

Will my pet insurance cover compounded medications?

Coverage varies by insurance provider and policy. Many pet insurance companies do cover compounded medications when prescribed by a veterinarian. We recommend checking with your insurance provider about their specific coverage policies.

How do I store compounded medications?

Storage requirements depend on the specific medication and formulation. Each compounded medication comes with clear storage instructions on the label. Some may need refrigeration while others should be stored at room temperature away from direct sunlight. Always follow the provided instructions.

"My cat Sophie absolutely refused to take pills, making her hyperthyroidism treatment a daily battle. NPLabs' transdermal gel has been a game-changer. I simply apply it to her ear, and she doesn't even notice! Her levels are now stable, and medication time is stress-free."
