Allows quality of life

I started taking hormone replacement therapy 10 years ago. I always had hormonal issues and with perimenopause it was extreme. I had all of the rare symptoms. I had cold flashes that would last for hours. Mood swings, depression, night sweats. I was becoming a non-functional person. Using blood tests, my doctor and my compounding pharmacist create prescriptions specifically for me to get my hormones to the levels that I need to function fully. This isn't something that can be created over-the-counter or as a generic pill. The combination is needed by a compounding pharmacist. It has been a quality lifesaver for me.

Hear their stories. Protect their own words. Protect their access to compounded medicines.

On this page, we can only touch on the data that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to the lives of millions of people in this country. While the decision to take this vital therapy from patients and physicians might be profitable for big pharmaceutical companies, it will be disastrous for the millions of patients that those same pharmaceutical companies cannot serve!

We encourage the appropriate committees in both the House and Senate to hold hearings on this critical issue.
