When patients do not respond to traditional prescription
medications or have a unique need that requires a customized dosage, strength or
formulation, prescription compounding allows medical professionals to prescribe
a customized medication specifically for patients.
Customized compounded prescriptions are created in
Ascend SpecialtyRx’s state-of-the-art, fully-compliant
compounding laboratory under the direction of highly trained and experienced compounding
pharmacists. As a compounding pharmacy,
Ascend SpecialtyRx meets or exceeds standards
for providing accurate compounded medications, quality control and safety.
