Teaching a pharmacy who doesn't (but could) to compound LDN
Posted: Thu Apr 15, 2004 6:14 pm
I don't know if this is a stupid question, or not.
I live close to a local compounding pharmacy who has not compounded LDN but claims they have access to a US national pharmacological resource that provides directions on how they would take the standard dose of Naltrexone to the low-dose weight. I'm not sure who's database they're referring to.
Has anyone dealt with a local pharmacy (US) that has compounded LDN for them as their first customer, and are do you know what additional resources (additionally to being registered pharmacists that operate a compounding pharmacy to begin with) they referred to in order to provide you with a high-quality compound? Or is doing this simply a no-brainer for a qualified pharmacist who does this type of thing and are willing?
Obviously, I can use an existing out-of-state compounding pharmacy that does LDN for a lot of patients. I would prefer to use a local one to avoid shipping charges, etc. I hate to have to learn about how a pharmacist has to go about doing their job, but if I go down the path of having a qualified local pharmacy do it, I want to have confidence in what I'm getting.
Any thoughts?
