Central Ohio Compounding Pharmacy's ultimate goal in preparing customized medications is to help the physician and patient achieve a more positive therapeutic outcome. This relationship of patient-physician-pharmacist is especially true in treating hospice patients.

Hospice Objectives:

• Control Pain and/or Nausea
• Wound Therapy
• Inhalation Therapy
• Radiation Burns
• Saliva Stimulants
• Intractable Hiccups
• Manage Symptoms
• Improve patients overall quality of life

With good communication between caregivers/healthcare providers and patients, we as compounding pharmacists can have a better understanding of treatment goals and how best to help the patient through customized medication.

Some customized medications made in alternative dosing forms:

• Pain medications-topical creams, rectal, oral, capsules or nasal sprays
• Nausea medications-topical creams or rectal
• Radiation burns-frozen popsicles or mouth rinses
• Saliva stimulants-lozenges or mouth rinses

At Central Ohio Compounding Pharmacy we can often times customize the medication so the hospice patient is comfortable during the day to visit with their loved ones and can sleep at night. Let us know how we can help.
