Dental Medicine
Vic’s Family Pharmacy is a compounding pharmacy that meets the compounding needs of dentists and patients throughout Idaho.   Our compounding pharmacists have the ability to custom compound medications in our state-of-the-art compounding laboratory located in Nampa, ID.  We compound medications that improve therapeutic outcomes, reduce side effects, and save patients time and money. 
 
When to Compound for Dentistry
 
Compounding medications for dentistry is essential in these instances:
  • Your first line therapy fails
  • A commercially manufactured medication is on backorder or discontinued
  • Your patient has a medical necessity which requires an alternative dosage form or strength be utilized, outside of what is commercially available
  • Your patient has an allergy or side effect to a commercially available product
  • The medical condition and/or medical history of the patient, is such, that it requires the use of multiple therapies combined into one medication
 
Benefits of Compounding for Dental Medicine
 
You can use the power of pharmacy compounding to benefit your patients’ well being, and to support your position as a problem solving medical specialist within your community.  Utilizing compounding as a treatment option allows you to accrue these benefits:
  • Expand your treatment armamentarium, and develop a highly satisfied patient base
