St. Mary Pharmacy isn't just another pharmacy; it's a cornerstone of community healthcare, deeply invested in providing personalized compounding services and a comprehensive range of medical supplies. Our story began with a simple belief: that every individual deserves access to medication tailored to their specific needs, delivered with care and expertise. This commitment fuels everything we do, from meticulously crafting custom compounded medications to ensuring you have access to the medical supplies you need to manage your health effectively.
What is Compounding Pharmacy?
Compounding is the art and science of preparing personalized medications. Unlike mass-produced pharmaceuticals, compounded medications are customized to meet the unique needs of each patient. This might involve altering the dosage form (e.g., creating a liquid medication instead of a pill for easier swallowing), adjusting the strength, or combining multiple medications into a single, convenient preparation. At St. Mary Pharmacy, our expert pharmacists work closely with healthcare providers to create compounded medications that are safe, effective, and perfectly suited to your individual health requirements. We use only high-quality ingredients and follow strict quality control procedures to guarantee the safety and efficacy of every compounded medication we prepare.

What are the benefits of using a compounding pharmacy?
Many patients find compounding pharmacies invaluable for several reasons:
- Personalized medication: Compounding allows for customization of dosage, strength, and form, accommodating specific needs and preferences.
- Improved medication adherence: When medication is easier to take (e.g., a flavored liquid instead of a bitter pill), patients are more likely to adhere to their prescribed treatment plan.
- Allergy avoidance: Compounding can help eliminate unwanted ingredients or allergens present in commercially available medications.
- Addressing specific needs: Compounding can address unique situations like pediatric dosing, specialized dietary requirements, and sensitivities to certain inactive ingredients.
How do I know if compounding is right for me?
Determining if compounded medications are the right choice for you involves a conversation with your healthcare provider.

We work closely with physicians and other healthcare professionals to ensure seamless communication and coordination of care.
