  • BENEFITS OF MEDICATION COMPOUNDING

    • Changing the dosage form of your medication -
If you cannot swallow a tablet or capsule, we can compound your medication into a form that can be absorbed through your skin or taken as liquid.
    • Changing the dose of existing formulations. 
If you have a small child or pet that requires a tiny dose of medication, our compounding team can provide you with a dosage form containing the correct amount of medication.
    • Eliminating unwanted additives or side effects.
If you cannot tolerate your medication due to dye or fillers such as lactose, our compounding pharmacists can eliminate these components.
    • Providing medications not commercially available. Topical hormone replacement and pain relieving products.


  • BIO-IDENTICAL HORMONE REPLACEMENT

    At Murphy’s Pharmacies, we compound hormone replacement therapy for both men and women. As we age, our bodies tend to produce fewer hormones creating an imbalance and a proliferation of the symptoms of ageing. The medical terms for this process are usually referred to as menopause in women and andropause in men.  We are able to work with patients and physicians to restore that balance.  Unlike the products that are available commercially, the hormones at Murphy’s Pharmacies are biologically equivalent to the hormones that are produced in the body. Most women all receive the same dose that is available commercially. At Murphy’s Pharmacies, we measure hormone levels in the body and then customize the dose that will meet the needs of each individual person.

    Some benefits of hormone therapy include: promotion of youthful cell growth in organs, enhanced skin smoothness, firmness and elasticity, enhanced muscle tone, decrease risk of osteoporosis, enhanced sex drive, decrease risk of colon cancer, and overall increase in feelings of well-being and quality of life.
