About this specialty

Dermatology compounding is commonly used to combine multiple active ingredients into a single topical product, adjust strength, or switch a patient to a base they tolerate. Compounding pharmacies prepare creams, gels, ointments, foams, and solutions on a per-prescription basis.

These formulations are prescription-only and must be coordinated between the prescriber and the pharmacy. The pharmacy does not select the active ingredients or the base; it prepares what the prescriber has written.

Confirm with the pharmacy that they can prepare the specific combination, strength, and base on the prescription before transferring or sending a new prescription.
