“Compounding saved my marriage”

I am the Senior Director of Clinical Strategy at one of the largest medical companies in the world and plan our data needs. At 40 years of age, I was tired all the time, I could not recover from any workouts, I was competitively cycling and not able to train and recover and my libido had crashed. I went and had bloodwork and found that my testosterone level of the lowest 5% for an 85-year-old man. I am now 53, have been using compounded medications for 13 years and it has changed my life. I can work out and recover, and my wife and I have a great relationship (she is also using compounded medications after a partial hysterectomy). I have read the FDA report performed by a large number of pharmaceutical company consultants suggesting regulation and think this is an exceptionally flawed approach. This is a perfect opportunity for an RWE study on compounding drugs rather than a poorly run study by a clearly biased group.

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.
