“Compounded medications for HRT can be more closely titrated ...”

Compounded medications for HRT can be more closely titrated to match the patient's needs determined with precise testing. Hormone therapy is not a one-size-fits-all and the amount taken/applied must be adjusted for the particular needs of the patient which can only be done through compounding. If the amount is insufficient or excessive to even the smallest measure, it can have profound negative effects on the patient. Compounded HRT is also chemically identical to what is produced in the body unlike pharmaceuticals created in a laboratory. Engineered laboratory hormones are not recognized by receptors in the body in the same way as compounded bioidentical hormones. Access to compounded HRT is essential for restoring and maintaining good cardiovascular health along with resistance to cancer.

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.
