Compounding Can Provide Pain Relief

September is Pain Awareness Month, and we're guessing you're just as aware of your pain this month as you were last month. Living with chronic pain can be a struggle that you would probably rather do without. This is exactly why the Lime in the Coconut Compounding Pharmacy continues to do what we do.


There are more than 100-million adults in the United States suffer from chronic pain, which is more than cancer, heart disease, and diabetes - combined. There are many different types of chronic pain that can be experienced, and we're going to show several ways that the Lime in the Coconut can help.

 Types of Pain We Can Treat
As the only compounding pharmacy at the Lake of the Ozarks, we have many options to help you treat your pain. Our methods are just as unique as you are because we create your medications for you and your specific need. Here are just a few of the different types of pain we can treat:
  • Migraines
  • Arthritis
  • Nerve Pain
  • Muscle Pain
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Sports Injuries

Pain Management Formulas
Because we realize that every single person is different, we pull from a variety of different pain management formulas. We use a variety of pain formulas because want to find a solution for your individual needs. Here are a few formulas that we can utilize:
  • Nerve Blocking Agents
  • Muscle Relaxants
  • Analgesics
  • NSAIDs
  • Combination Drugs

 Custom Delivery Methods & Dosages
The advantage of compounding creams is that we can customize and provide an alternate method of delivery. We can combine the ingredients of traditional oral pain medications in a topical gel, cream, or spray form that you can then apply directly to the site of the pain. For migraine sufferers, pain medication may be administered through nasal sprays or flavored troches or lozenges. These dosage forms bypass the gastrointestinal tract, and may provide optimal results without the side effects.

Because our patients vary in size, symptoms, and pain tolerance, commercially available medications often do not provide an appropriate dosage strength. Through compounding, we can customize a medication to the exact amount needed.

 Pain Dosage Forms
Different pain can require a different form of medication. In addition to the ingredients, the way the dosage is delivered has a big impact on the effectiveness of your pain medication. At our compounding pharmacy, we can put common pain management formulas into a variety of different dosage forms, including:
  • Transdermal Creams
  • Topical Creams, Ointments, & Gels
  • Troches (lozenges)
  • Mouth Rinses
  • Extended Release Capsules
  • Transdermal Gels
  • Suppositories
  • Nasal Sprays
Treating Pain In a Unique Way
You are unique. Shouldn't your medicine be too? At the Lime in the Coconut Compounding Pharmacy at the Lake of the Ozarks, we work with you and your healthcare professional to create a medication that can treat your pain. With September being all about Pain Awareness Month, make this month the time you address your pain. Let the Lime in the Coconut assist you with this!

The RevIVe Room at The Lime in the Coconut!

Have you visited The RevIVe Room yet? The Lake of the Ozarks' ONLY wellness IV boutique, The RevIVe Room is your one-stop-shop for hydration, energy, and overall wellness. With unique combinations of vitamins and minerals, the wellness IVs at The RevIVe Room nourish your body while you relax in a spa-like atmosphere.

Your Private Wellness IV Boutique

The RevIVe Room offers IV drips, shots, and boosters to meet your every need. When administered via an IV, the micronutrients are deposited directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the stomach and the digestive system. In addition to replenishing the fluids our bodies are lacking, this allows more of the nutrients to be available to the muscles and tissues.

 The IV menu at The RevIVe Room features several different wellness IVs to meet your unique needs. Our caring and knowledgeable staff can assist you in choosing which drip is right for you.

 Cleanse
This mixture of amino acids and electrolytes is a great supplement to any low-calorie diet, fast, or cleanse.

 Weight Loss
This combination of vitamins and fat burners helps use stored fat and build lean muscle.

 Energy
This IV is full of much-needed vitamins - including B12, B5, and B6 - to give you the energy you need to not only survive, but thrive.

 Anti-Aging
This cocktail of vitamin C, biotin, CoQ10, and glutathione helps brighten skin and fight aging from the inside out.

 Immunity
This mixture of vitamin C, lysine, and zinc will help boost your immune system so you can stay healthy and well.

 The Hangover
This drip costs a little bit more, but it's worth it! If you were over-served last night, this IV will get you back on track in no time. This much-needed combination of fluids, vitamins, anti-nausea medication, and anti-inflammatory medication will help you to feel better fast.

 The Classic Myers' Cocktail
Started over half a century ago, this cocktail has the perfect mix of vitamins and minerals for overall wellness.
