Coast to Coast Compounding

We know how important it is to have your medications. Before we even start compounding a medication we call all of our patients when we receive a new prescription for them. This allows you as a patient to have some peace of mind and our pharmacists the ability to discuss pricing, questions, or any concerns you may have about your newly prescribed compounded medication.

It typically takes our talented technicians 24-48 hours to have a product compounded and ready to pick up.

Coast to Coast Compounding can arrange deliver of your prescription to you in Colorado or in the states where we hold a pharmacy license, with a small shipping fee. We are expanding our services to other states, please contact the pharmacy to inquire about which states we are able to dispense prescriptions.

Our customer care specialists and pharmacists are available in office or by phone Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Prescription compounding has been part of healthcare since the origins of pharmacy, and is widely used today in all areas of the industry, from hospitals to nuclear medicine. Over the last decade, compounding’s resurgence has largely benefited from advances in technology, quality control and research methodology. The Food and Drug Administration has agreed that compounded prescriptions are both ethical and legal as long as they are prescribed by a licensed practitioner for a specific patient and compounded by a licensed pharmacy. In addition, compounding is regulated by state boards of pharmacy and the Drug Enforcement Agency.

If this is your first time using a compounding pharmacy, you probably have many questions. We are available to answer your questions individually, but below are some of the most frequently asked questions.

Almost any kind of prescription can be compounded. Compounded prescriptions are ideal for any patient requiring unique dosages and/or delivery devices, which can take the form of solutions, suppositories, sprays, oral rinses, or lollipops. Compounding applications can include bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, veterinary, pediatric, dental, otic, dermatology, medication flavoring, chronic pain management, neuropathies, sports medicine, infertility, wound therapy, podiatry, and gastroenterology.

Compounding is a specialized pharmacy practice allowing physicians, nurse practitioners, veterinarians, dentists, and other health care professionals to prescribe uniquely formulated medications. Medications aren't one size fits all and this method allows the compounding pharmacist to work with both the patient and the prescriber in order to create a customized medication to help meet a patient’s specific needs. Prescriptions can be customized to provide unique doses, dosage forms, and custom flavored preparations for both humans and animals alike. For example, if someone can’t tolerate taking a medication by mouth because they have been experiencing nausea or vomiting, we can compound a specialized form of the medication to bypass this issue. The medication could be made into a transdermal form to be placed on the skin where it can be absorbed.
