Medication Flavouring

Studies have shown that allowing a child to play an active role in choosing the flavour of their medication makes him/her more compliant to drug regimens. Showing a child that they have the capability to modify the flavour of a medication to a one of their liking grants them some authority in their treatment. If you would like to know if the prescription you have for your child is one of many bad tasting medicines, please call us at 416-322-0123.

And it’s not just for kids. Adults can have their liquid medication flavored too. One of our many flavours will surely help it go down easier:

  • Apple
  • Banana
  • Banana-orange
  • Bubblegum
  • Chocolate
  • Cherry
  • Grape
  • Lemon
  • Marshmallow
  • Mint

  • Strawberry
  • Watermelon
  • …and more

Medication plays an important role in treating many conditions and diseases, but when they are no longer needed it’s important to dispose of them properly to avoid harm to others. Health Canada, list some disposal options and some special disposal instructions for you to consider when throwing out expired, unwanted, or unused medicines http://healthycanadians.gc.ca/health-sante/medicine-medicament/disposal-defaire-eng.php 

 

Specialty Compounding

Compounding combines an ageless art with the latest medical knowledge and state-of-the-art technology, allowing our specially trained pharmacists to prepare customized medications to meet each patient’s specific needs. The demand for professional compounding has increased as healthcare professionals and patients realize that the limited number of strengths and dosage forms that are commercially available do not meet the needs of many patients, and that these patients often have a better response to a customized dosage form.

Our compounding pharmacists can prepare:

  • unique dosage forms containing the best dose of medication for each individual.
  • medications in dosage forms that are not commercially available, such as transdermal gels, troches (lozenges), and more.
  • medications free of problem-causing excipients such as dyes, sugar, lactose, gluten or alcohol.
  • combinations of various compatible medications into a single dosage form for easier administration and improved compliance.
  • medications that are not commercially available or are on back-order from the manufacturer

Compounding can offer some creative methods of treating medical conditions. For example, for those with swallowing difficulties or nausea, creams or gels can be made to carry medicine through the skin. In addition, tasty liquids can be made to carry drugs for a child who is reluctant to take his or her medicine. Read more on compounding.
