“Compounding saved my Life”

I am a 70 yr old female. Diagnosed as hypothyroid in my late 30's. Have tried most all of the FDA-approved drugs that kept me alive but without any quality of life. I tried the drugs from the compounding pharmacy and within a week or two, I was on the road to recovery..
Twice in my life, I couldn't get the drugs and I was sick for a year although I still worked it was difficult and my performance suffered. Next time, I was very sick for a year and a half, to the point of it affecting my heart, my sleep, my hair, etc and had to go on sick leave. I found the compounding pharmacy and have been living a decent, healthy life since. I have only 90 days' supply left before I get sick again because of your FDA restrictions. I honestly dont think my body can stand to be sick like that again. How can you do this to me and the others?

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.
