Pharmacy compounding
Pharmacy compounding is the art and science of preparing customized medications for patients. Compounded medications are "made from scratch" - individual ingredients are mixed together in the exact strength and dosage form required by the patient. This method allows the compounding pharmacist to work with the patient and the prescriber to customize a medication to meet the patient's specific needs. Its practice dates back to the origins of pharmacy, although compounding's presence in the pharmacy profession has changed over the years. In the 1930s and 1940s, the majority of prescriptions were compounded. With the advent of mass drug manufacturing in the 1950s and '60s, compounding declined as the pharmacist's role as a preparer of medications quickly changed to that of a dispenser of manufactured dosage forms. However, this "one-size-fits-all" approach to medication meant that some patient's needs were not being met.
Within the last few decades, however, compounding has experienced a renaissance as modern technology and innovative techniques and research have allowed more pharmacists to customize medications to meet a patient's unique needs.
