Animal Medications

Rx Options Pharmacy can solve medication problems for animals too! Just as some people have special needs, so do some animals. Any veterinarian will tell you that they have a very limited number of medications available to treat our pets. Often times they have to use medications made for people, but the dosage or flavors just don't work well in animals. The solution to this problem is a custom compound from Rx Options for your pet!

Size is Not a Problem. Because animals vary in size, from your pet hamster to a large horse, commercial medications are not always practical. Rather than give multiple doses to the larger animals, we can compound the proper strength in just one dose and reduce the dose for smaller animals.

What About Taste? Rx Options can prepare custom flavored medications that are acceptable to all types of animals; apple/carrot for horses, banana/orange for birds and exotics, beef/liver for dogs, tuna is the purr..fect flavor for cats.

Medicine Unavailable? Manufacturers of animal medicine often stop producing medicines and dosage forms for which there is little demand. There is still occasional need for these products. We can obtain the chemical and compound a product that may be superior to the discontinued formulation.

Can't Get the Medication into Your Pet? Ever try to give a cat a pill? Those of you who have, know it isn't very easy nor successful. Fortunately, we can compound topical transdermal medications that are just as effective. Numerous drugs can be administered transdermally by applying a gel to the inner surface of the pet's ear, or to a shaved area. Transdermal gels carry the medication into the pet's body without the problems of having to fight with your cat or dog.

Cat or Dog have low thyroid hormone? Soloxine may be the answer you have been looking for.

The ability to meet special needs and provide solutions for unique medical problems are some of the advantages offered by your compounding specialist. At Rx Options Compounding Pharmacy we understand how important your pets are and we prepare their treatment with the same care and genuine concern as we do for people.
