My body and life are significantly better since we changed to compounded meds....

I have hypothyroidism and have my thyroid medicine compounded. I found out that I am allergic to traditional over the counter prescription thyroid pills as I get severe leg cramps that are debilitating and extremely painful with them. My compounded prescription meds have to be hypoallergenic which I cannot get through traditional prescriptions. Thyroid meds have affected the functioning of my heart, moisture levels in my body, sleeping patterns, bowel movements, memory and brain functions, and my overall mood and emotional outlook on life in a very positive way. My body and life are significantly better since we changed to compounded meds and dialed in on the correct dosage, of which doesn't come in OTC form even if I could take them.

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.

We encourage the appropriate committees in both the House and Senate to hold hearings on this critical issue.
