Receiving Prescription Refills Online

While numerous Internet pharmacies are available today, patients should exercise judiciousness in their choice of a dependable and experienced online pharmacy that is fully equipped to fulfill their needs for online prescription refills. Convenient, timely, and zero-error deliveries are critical to an online pharmacy, but not every pharmacy may be able to meet these commitments with consistency.

Patients should preferably choose an online pharmacy that compounds its own drugs and has a physician available for support. The following aspects should be noted when making a choice of an online pharmacy for prescription refills:

  • The patient portal or company website of the online pharmacy should outline clear directions for filling the prescription.
  • Privacy policy of the online pharmacy should be clearly defined.
  • The website should inform proper company details, contact address, and the phone number on top of any other relevant information germane to the pharmacy.
  • Patients must avoid dubious websites that might make claims such as medications will be prescribed without the physician seeing the patient.

AIP accepts requests for online prescription refills through phone, fax, and email. Even if the patient is out of refills, the professional staff at AIP can get in touch with the ordering doctor to request any authorization. The pharmacy ships medications nationally, and shipping is generally made free of charge.

What is a Compounded Medication?

Compounded Medication

096ba564fc226d0427b44ac4c159e11bCustomized drugs that are produced by a licensed pharmacist by mixing ingredients to fit the unique needs of a patient are called compounded medications. In the olden times, before the mass manufacturing pharmaceutical industry emerged, compounded medications were the primary form of providing prescription drugs to patients.

A compounding pharmacy with specially trained pharmacists can today create custom tailored drugs using advanced medical knowledge and state of the art technology. Customized dosage and convenient delivery mechanisms are the other elements that set compounded medications apart from mass-produced commercial drugs.

Need for Compounded Drugs

The popularity and acceptance of compounded drugs has been on the rise. Patients may need these medications for one or more of the following reasons:

  • The patient may need a specific medication that is not being produced commercially or has been discontinued.
  • A specific ingredient or hormone may or may not be required.
  • The dosage strength of the medication may need to be modified.
  • The commercial drug may have certain dyes, preservatives or binders that may cause allergy to the patient.
  • The patient may need an alternative mode of drug delivery.

American Integrative Pharmacy combines the traditional pharmacy with Internet-based pharmacy for online prescription refills to reach out to patients all over the US. The pharmacy can prepare medications in custom dosage forms such as liquids, capsules, troches, topical gels and creams, drops, lozenges, foam suppositories, and sprays.

Flavoring

Flavors in oral medications can be modified to improve compliances for specific patients. AIP can even prepare lollipops and infant pacifiers that are provided in childproof packaging. Troches for placing below the tongue for quick absorption in the bloodstream can be provided. If the patient is having difficult to swallow capsules or tablets, the pharmacists at AIP can compound them in oral form and add flavoring.

Topical Preparations

In many cases, AIP compounds creams, gels, lotions, sprays foams and lip balms for topical applications. They are used widely because the ingredients are absorbed directly through the skin and gastro-intestinal irritation is avoided. For inflammation and pain management, topical compounded medications can be very useful. AIP is an integrative pharmacy in Long Beach, Torrance, Los Angeles, South Bay Orange County and other areas in Southern California.

Capsules

Each patient will have a unique health condition, including different symptoms and varying tolerance to medications. Mass produced commercial drugs cannot address the specific needs of a patient in every case. AIP’s pharmacists can customize the prescribed capsules to match with the patient’s requirements. AIP also provides vegetarian capsules produced from cellulose instead of gelatin.
