I had hot flashes coming about every 20 minutes.

I was suffering from hot flashes for several months when I talked to my pharmacist about my issue. She recommended trying some over the counter herbal remedies. These did not work. She suggested I see my doctor and ask for a compounded prescription. I got that and the pharmacy started my dosage at a low amount applied to my skin. I also had saliva testing done. The prescription applied to my skin didn't work. So, I went on a compounded capsule. The very next day I didn't have a hot flash! I could hardly believe it. After suffering so long this was like a dream come true for me. I have been taking the capsule ever since. I have had some adjustments made over the years, but, am still taking the medication. And, continue to have the saliva testing done.

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.
