Every pet owner knows how difficult it can be to treat your pet with medication. For example – your cat won’t swallow a tablet and it is nearly impossible to ensure the correct dose is taken.

Compounding
can remedy these and many other problems associated with pet medications.  Therefore the practice of  preparing customized medications for your pet provides a variety of different forms or options to make medicating easier.

Veterinary preparations
can be individualized  to a specific dose, flavour or form.  Examples of these are:  palatable solutions, small capsules, oil suspensions, topical ointment/ gel or a transdermal cream for better compliance.  These varieties ensure that you are getting the medication that perfectly meets all your pet’s healthcare needs.
