Compounding is the process by which the Pharmacist uses pure ingredient chemicals to make your medications. At Skaha Pharmacy, we specialize in 3 main areas of Compounding.

• Pharmaceutical Compounding

Why would I want/need to have a prescription compounded?

If you need a specific medication, medication strength, or dosage form that is not commercially available, then your medication must be compounded (for example, you may want a specific flavour, need a discontinued medication, or need a unique formulation of a medication).

Why can't my regular pharmacy compound my prescription?

A compounding only pharmacy uses state-of-the-art equipment, chemicals and advanced techniques to compound and ensure quality products. Other pharmacies do not have the time, equipment, chemicals, or education to 'custom-make' your medications.

What types of things do you compound?

A compounding only pharmacy compounds:  topical creams and ointments, flavoured suspensions (any flavour), ophthalmic preparations, suppositories, sprays, lozenges, capsules, powders, enemas, veterinary formulations and many, many more!

Why do you not accept my insurance?

There are so many insurance plans available that we have decided to focus our expertise on solving your medication problems and let insurance companies utilize their expertise in solving insurance related needs.
