Custome Preparations

Implantable Hormone Pellets

Hormone replacement therapy can be administered to patients in a variety of forms, including patches, pills, and creams. But one type, called Implantable Hormone Pellets, is almost always manufactured and dispensed by compounding pharmacies. At MasterPharm, our highly trained technicians can customize the production of implantable hormone pellets to meet the needs of each unique patient.

Compared to oral medications, implantable pellets release the prescribed level and composition of hormones into the body over a three to four month period, thereby avoiding the peaks and valleys common to hormone replacement therapy. Each pellet is a tiny, solid cylinder close in size to a grain of rice. A qualified medical professional uses an instrument to implant these pellets into the abdomen or buttocks of the patient under local anesthesia. While the pellets dissolve under the skin, the prescribed levels of hormones are consistently released in the body throughout the prescribed timeframe.

Testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone are among the hormones that physicians prescribe for hormone replacement or bio-identical hormone therapies. Hormone replacement therapy can improve many common ailments including the following:

• Migraines and headaches
• Incontinence
• Decreased libido
• Low bone density
• Depression and anxiety
• Fatigue
• Poor mental concentration
• Body weight issues

At MasterPharm, we prepare implantable hormone pellets and other custom preparations according to stringent quality control measures. We guarantee proper compounds, dosages, and the sterility of each preparation, and adhere to strict USP/NF 795 and 797 standards, among other quality control guidelines governing aseptic preparation of customized pharmaceutical compounds.

Topical Pain Management

While topical pain relievers are readily available, patients may need medications with different strengths, compounds, and forms. Through pharmaceutical compounding, MasterPharm customizes topical pain relievers according to the unique preferences and requirements of patients.

The active ingredients in two or three commercial products can be combined into a single customized medication to simplify their use. Unlike commercial products, we can also prepare pain relievers that are free of substances that can cause adverse reactions in patients, such as fillers, dyes, and preservatives.

Topical pain relievers are regularly used for a wide range of common ailments including the following:

• Arthritis
• Fibromyalgia
• Inflammation or pain
• Migraines
• Neuropathy

If a patient cannot take a medication in the commercially available form, we can make it in another form that is easier for them to take. Taste, convenience, and ease of use are especially critical in medications for chronic pain management. At MasterPharm, we compound prescriptions for pain management and relief in a variety of drug forms including the following:

• Creams
• Extended release narcotic capsules
• Ointments
• Mini-troches Rapidly dissolving tablets

Men's/Women's Health

Bio-Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy (BHRT), which may only be obtained from compounding pharmacies like MasterPharm, is one major category of solutions that greatly benefit those experiencing decreased levels of estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and other hormones.

Throughout a woman's life, phases like PMS, fertility, and menopause present challenging symptoms that can be mitigated and managed using HRT. Menopausal symptoms can include the following:

• Hot flashes
• Bloating
• Weight gain
• Insomnia and fatigue
• Depression and irritability
• Impaired glucose tolerance
• High blood pressure

Men also experience declines in their fitness, vitality, and quality of life when their hormonal levels fluctuate. The following are common conditions that can affect men as they age:

• Andropause (male menopause)
• Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
• Low T (Testosterone)
• Cardiovascular disease
• Increased belly fat
• Depression

Since commercially available medications, preparations, and solutions do not work effectively for all men and women, physicians and patients turn to compounding pharmacies to formulate drug products that address the needs of each individual. Hormone replacement therapy, injectables, and vitamin supplements can play a pivotal role in restoring the optimal health of both men and women.

At MasterPharm, we employ stringent quality control measures that guarantee proper compounds, dosages, and the sterility of each preparation. Our highly trained technicians adhere to strict USP/NF 795 and 797 standards, among other quality control guidelines governing aseptic preparation of customized pharmaceutical compounds.

Autism

Because of their sensitive constitutions, most autistic children benefit from diets free of casein and gluten proteins commonly found in wheat and milk products because these substances are hard to digest.

Since autistic children need medications and aggressive mega-vitamin therapies for optimal health, MasterPharm can specially formulate these products free of the following bothersome agents:

• Gluten
• Casein
• Soy
• Preservatives
• Artificial flavorings
• Artificial coloring
• Sugars

Hemorrhoid/Anal Fissure

At MasterPharm, we work with physicians, gastroenterologists, and other medical professionals to customize hemorrhoid and anal fissure treatments for their patients. We can combine a variety of compounds that are therapeutic for hemorrhoidal inflammation or anal fissures including the following:

• Benzocaine
• Lidocaine
• Hydrocortisone
• Nifedipine
• Nitroglycerin
• Tetracaine

We can formulate compounds in a variety of strengths, and dispense them as suppositories, ointments, as well as creams and gels. For hemorrhoids, we can use drug delivery systems, such as Rectal Rockets, which are disposable devices designed to deliver medication directly to the painful rectal area without slipping. And for anal fissures, we can formulate Chemical Sphincterotomy solutions that use pharmacological sphincter relaxants such as calcium channel blockers, including Diltiazem and Nifedipine, as well as topical nitrates. DoseRite and other disposable delivery systems ensure that the correct compound and dosage coat the site of anal fissures in order to relax the sphincter to promote faster healing.
