Question 1

What is compound medication for pets?

Accepted Answer

Compound medication for pets is individualized medication formulated by a licensed pharmacist by mixing different ingredients together. Medications can be compounded for custom doses or more palatable flavors, or they may be compounded into easier-to-administer forms like chews, liquids or creams. Your vet may recommend compound medications for a variety of reasons, or you can ask your vet about compound prescription medicine options if you have a difficult-to-medicate pet.

Question 2

What are some of the benefits of compound medication?

Accepted Answer

Some of the benefits of compound medication include easier administration, custom dosing and even safety if your pet reacts poorly to being medicated in traditional ways. A daily medication that tastes like a treat can make medicine time a pleasant occasion for your pet. Pain and anxiety medications in versatile liquid form may make adjusting the dosage according to your vet’s instructions easier. Transdermal medications can feel like a lifesaver for cat parents and those with medication-averse dogs, as well. Talk to your vet about whether a compound formulation may be helpful for your best friend.

Question 3

What kind of compound medication can I give my pet?

Accepted Answer

You can give your pet any kind of compound medication that your vet recommends and prescribes. Popular compound medicines for cats and dogs include allergy medication, antibiotics, antifungals, anxiety medication, ulcer & digestive tract medicine, heart & blood pressure medicine and pain meds for various ailments. Check out all the compound medicines we offer in the Chewy pharmacy and see if your vet thinks a compound formula would be a good choice for your pet.
