At Sweetgrass Pharmacy & Compounding, we offer customized compounded medications for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, ferrets, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, lizards, turtles, and parrots. Our goal is to provide tailored solutions that meet the unique health needs of each animal.

We can compound medications for a range of therapeutic classes, including:

  • Allergies
  • Behavioral Disorders

  • Cardiovascular Disease

  • Hypertension
  • Hyperthyroidism
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Inflammation

Sweetgrass Pharmacy & Compounding collaborates with pet owners, veterinarians, and pets to develop the best clinical outcome plan through compounded medications. Whether it’s creating a concentrated solution for a small dog like a Chihuahua or using a transdermal cream for a cat that refuses oral medication, we offer numerous options to suit a pet’s needs. We utilize the latest clinical research and proven formulas to provide the highest quality compounded medications.

Pet Owners

Compounding allows veterinary practitioners to prescribe medications that are specifically prepared to meet the individual needs of veterinary patients. Many pets have unique health needs that cannot be met by commercially available medications. Customized compounded medications prescribed by veterinarians and prepared by trained, licensed compounding pharmacists provide a unique solution to help provide better health outcomes for pets.

Bring a veterinarian’s written prescription to Sweetgrass Pharmacy & Compounding and we will contact the prescribing veterinarian to arrange the prescription.

The cost of compounded medications varies based on strength, dosage form, and quantity. We provide pricing details when the prescription is received, ensuring transparency before you proceed.

For those who are not nearby, we offer shipping services at no extra charge. Medications are shipped via USPS with tracking, typically arriving within 2-3 days. For urgent needs, we will work with you to ensure timely delivery.

Veterinarians

Compounding is a specialized area of pharmacy practice that involves creating medications tailored to the specific needs of animals. Many pets have unique health needs that standard medications cannot meet. Our compounding pharmacists will collaborate with veterinarians to provide a personalized approach to treatment, ensuring that each pet receives the exact care they require.

Sweetgrass Pharmacy & Compounding follows a comprehensive quality assurance program that complies with state board regulations and United States Pharmacopeia standards. Our protocols include facility and equipment monitoring, staff training, process verification, and quality control checks to ensure both quality and patient safety.

We offer confidential, professional consultations either in-person or via telephone. Our pharmacists are dedicated to compounding and are available to address any questions or concerns from both prescribers and patients.

We can ship prescriptions directly to your clients, billing and delivering the exact medication you prescribe. We also provide refill reminders to ensure continuous therapy.

Prices depend on the active ingredients, concentration, volume, and dosage form. Contact us at our pharmacist for price estimates.

Compounding is a regulated practice, governed by state laws and State Boards of Pharmacy. Pharmacists must have proficiency in compounding to become licensed, and it is a fundamental part of pharmacy education.

While compounding is not the best choice for every patient, it is essential for many veterinary patients when standard medications are not suitable. Veterinarians may prescribe compounded medications when necessary drugs are unavailable, when patients have allergies to certain ingredients, or when tailored dosages are required for specific health needs.

Veterinarians may consider compounding in situations such as:

  • Discontinued or unavailable medications
  • Allergies to preservatives, dyes, or binders
  • Tailored dosage strengths for unique needs
  • Combining multiple medications into one dosage form
  • Alternative dosage forms for better administration
  • Adding flavor additives to make medications more palatable
