Medication Shortages
Compounded medicines prepared when commercially available products are unavailable or temporarily out of supply.
Supporting continuity of treatment
Medicine shortages can disrupt treatment when commercially available products become unavailable or supply is interrupted.
Compounding may provide an alternative approach where a prescriber determines that a customised preparation is appropriate to support continued patient care.
What we prepare
Alternative Strengths

Working with prescribers and healthcare providers

When alternative preparations may be required
Compounded medicines may be considered when commercially available medicines are temporarily unavailable and a prescriber determines that a customised preparation is appropriate for a patient’s treatment plan.
