No match. Call a pharmacist at (859) 276-3905: we compound many preparations that aren’t listed here.
Strengths, bases and quantities are set by each prescription. Compounded medications are prepared for an individual patient pursuant to a valid prescription. They are not FDA-approved, and the FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness or quality.
What we prepare
About a third of our formulary is veterinary: oral suspensions such as gabapentin, fluoxetine and metronidazole, transdermal creams such as methimazole and amlodipine, and capsules, compounded in strengths and forms sized for the animal.
Why veterinarians prescribe compounded medications
Many medications aren’t made in doses small enough for a cat or large enough for a big dog, or in a form an animal will take. Compounding lets a veterinarian order the right strength, a flavored liquid instead of a tablet, or a transdermal cream applied to the ear. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved.
Three steps, one pharmacy.
Your veterinarian sends us a prescription for your pet
By e-prescription, fax or LifeFile, with the strength and dosage form you need.

We review the prescription, prepare it for you and check it before it leaves.

Veterinary, answered.
Still have a question? Call us to speak with a member of our team.
Call (859) 276-3905Can I order for my pet without a vet?
No. Veterinary preparations need a prescription from a licensed veterinarian who has examined the animal.
Can you flavor a medication?
Often, yes. Many oral suspensions can be flavored to make dosing easier. Your veterinarian’s prescription and our pharmacists decide what’s appropriate.
Can I give my pet a human medication instead?
Never without your veterinarian’s direction. Doses and ingredients that are fine for people can harm animals.
