Customized Medication For Every Step Of Life's Journey

Always remember that you are unique - just like everybody else!

Human beings are intrinsically unique creatures. No two of us are alike. We all have different needs, different thoughts, different passions, different emotions, and different bodies.

The problem with the modern medical world is that it frequently attempts to lump hundreds of unique beings into predetermined categories and boxes. Standardized medication is prefabricated and mass-produced on a grand scale, made in accordance with the prescription that fits "most people."

Unfortunately, standardized prescriptions cannot possibly account for the unique needs of each individual patient. Consequently, patients frequently suffer numerous unpleasant side effects when taking the medication that is supposed to make them better.

Enter Compounding Medication

Compounding medication is designed to break the pattern. Instead of forcing patients to conform to prefabricated prescriptions, our Lake of the Ozarks compounding pharmacy creates each prescription specifically for its intended patient. We customize the ingredients, dosage amounts, and dosage form of each prescription to meet the needs of its intended recipient.

Your INDIVIDUAL Athlete Deserves INDIVIDUAL Medicine

We have talked a lot about compounded medication at the Lake of the Ozarks, and by this time you have surely figured out that compounding can benefit people from all walks of life in a wide variety of different situations. This week, we thought we would take a closer look at athletes and how compounding can help them through their unique situations.

Why Sports Compounding?

Athletes lead fast-paced and challenging lives. Not only is their well-being hindered when they experience an injury or health challenge - their entire lifestyle is at stake. Athletes' injuries are as distinct and varied as the athletes themselves, and we firmly believe that every individual athlete deserves access to individualized medication that is designed to fit their unique needs.

Compounding allows the doctors, trainers, athletic patients, and pharmacists at the Lake of the Ozarks to work together to create a unique dosage that is specifically tailored to the individual athlete.

Strength Variations

A 280-lb offensive lineman requires a very different physical training strategy than a 175-lb shortstop requires. Similarly, these athletes require different dosages of medication for best results. Commercial medications only come in specific dosage amounts, but our Lake of the Ozarks compounding pharmacy and customize the strength of every medication to match each of our athlete's individual needs.

Unique Dosage Forms

As with our other types of compounded medications, we can deliver athlete's medication is a variety of different dosage forms. Depending on the athlete's specific situation, we can create the medication as...

• Tablets
• Capsules
• Gels
• Creams
• Troches
• Sublingual Drops
• Sublingual Tablets
• Suppositories

While tablets and capsules are great in certain situation, our ability to deliver our customized medication at the Lake of the Ozarks in several different forms (specifically topical gels and creams) gives us a huge advantage. Medication taken orally must pass through the digestive system before finally ending up in the right location - assuming it doesn't get channeled somewhere else altogether. By applying the medication topically, we can be confident that it will reach the specific trigger point for maximum effect.

What Athletes Can Benefit From Compounding?

Compounding does not discriminate; athletes from all different disciplines have enjoyed great results by taking compounded medication. Swimmers can get treatment for swimmer's ear and fungal problems, for example, and bowlers can get relief from stresses on the wrist and finger joints. Joggers can be treated for swelling and muscle pain. 

Almost every repetitive sport (such as golf, tennis, and softball) can lead to chronic injuries without proper care and attention. If you (or other athletes you know) have suffered from sports-related pain or injuries, as your doctor how compounding medication could help you. For more information, contact one of our team at the Lime in the Coconut Specialty Compounding Pharmacy. We look forward to helping you in any way we can!

Why We Love Compounding (And You Should, Too!)

You've heard us talk about compounding carry on about how it's the best form of medication available, but it's time that we put our money our where our mouth is. What exactly is compounding? What can it do for your body and your health? The team at our Lake of the Ozarks compounding pharmacy is here with the answers to all of your questions!

What Is Compounding?

Pharmacy compounding is all about personalized medication. Compounded medications are made by mixing individual ingredients together to create medication that is unique to each patient's specific needs. By avoiding all standardized doses, the doctor, pharmacist, and patient can work together to create personalized medication that can have the optimum desired effect.

Compounding allows us to customize the doses to each patient's unique needs, but the strength of compounding medication does not stop there. As the best compounding pharmacy at the Lake of the Ozarks, we are also able to put medication in a variety of different forms to meet each patient's preferences and lifestyle requirements. Tablets, creams, syringes, lollipops, and suppositories are a few of the ways we can present your medication. On top of that, you can also say goodbye to nasty-tasting medication by choosing from any of our delicious flavors!

Compounding In Action!

So what does all of this mean for you and your health? Sometimes the standardized doses and delivery methods just don't match your lifestyle needs, and patients who have switched to compounded medications have seen incredible improvements in their health and overall quality of life. These real-life examples offer some great insights into the amazing benefits of personalized medication.

Tetracaine Popsicles
A local doctor referred a young girl to us who was suffering from an infection and a sore throat and refused to eat or drink anything. She had gotten so dehydrated that her parents were afraid they were going to have to have her admitted to the hospital and hooked up to IVs. We were able to compound the necessary medication into a tetracaine popsicle that the little girl could enjoy. Once she got the medicine she needed, she started eating and drinking again and was able to successfully avoid a hospital visit and invasive IVs.

Topical Pain Gels
We have one customer who was suffering from so much pain at work that he felt he was going to have to stop working, and the thought of not being able to support his family depressed him. He was not able to take oral pain relievers because they made him drowsy, and his job required that he be alert at all times. His doctor prescribed one of our topical pain gels to him, which allowed him to work without pain and without drowsiness. He tells everyone about us now!

Progesterone Vaginal Suppositories
After three miscarriages, a pregnant woman came to us for help. We contacted her OB/GYN for progesterone vaginal suppositories and supplied her with the necessary medication. She carried her baby for nine months and now has a healthy, happy baby girl.

These examples are great, and they barely scratch the surface of all the ways we have been able to help our customers lead happier, healthier lives. We are so honored to be able to have such a positive impact on our patients lives!
