Veterinary compounding covers medications prepared for animals when a commercial product is unavailable, the wrong strength, or hard to administer. Use this page to find pharmacies that prepare custom veterinary formulations in coordination with a veterinarian's prescription.
This shortlist is drawn from the directory for California. Highlighted pharmacies are listed first; if fewer than five are highlighted, general directory candidates are included so the list still reflects pharmacies you can call. The list is not an editorial review and does not imply paid placement. Always confirm directly with the pharmacy that they can prepare your specific prescription.
