Patient Stories

Compounded medicine is critical for me.

I am a 66-year-old female. I have multiple food intolerances including corn, wheat, and dairy. I had a total hysterectomy 12 years ago and tried regular hormones I reacted to the fillers in traditional hormones and could never get the correct balance of hormones. It resulted in more physical problems for me including hair loss, hives, and a general feeling of depression and exhaustion. All of these issues were corrected once I was able to get the compounded hormones prescribed by a doctor proficient in this area. I also had to have compounded pain killer when I had rotor cuff surgery 2 years ago. Most painkillers contain corn or fillers which I am intolerant to. We pay for these things out of our own pocket. These compounding pharmacies are life-saving for people like me. Please continue to let them do their great work.
