Not every mouth is the same. People have different teeth, lips, and mouths. People are unique. It is because of this uniqueness that requires a pharmacist to become problem solvers by providing specially compounded medications to meet unique needs. Martin Avenue Pharmacy, by practicing compounding and having unique devices that not every pharmacy has, can solve those unique patient needs.
In every dental practice, there are some patients that do not respond to traditional therapy or are unable to take commercially available medication because of their unique needs. Martin Avenue Pharmacy can help these patients. Compounding allows a dentist to prescribe and a pharmacist to prepare a customized medication that is not available commercially, or to place an available medication in a different dosage form to meet a specific patient need and improve compliance.
Dentists are faced with many different problems which are different or not encountered by physicians. Martin Avenue Pharmacy works together with dentists to solve these problems and improve dental health.
A few examples of the benefits of compounded medications:
(* Medications that are not commercially available )
• Discontinued or out-of-stock medications
• Combinations (topical, oral, injectable, etc.)
• Sugar-free, preservative-free, or dye free medications
• Dosage forms in most appropriate sizes, strengths, and flavors
• Novel compounds for special needs.
To help dentists solve some of these unique needs, we have created this website, newsletters and brochures about our compounding services. We would like to thank you for showing interest in compounding and giving us the opportunity to serve you by compounding a customized medication to meet your patient’s special needs. My staff and I value your trust you have placed in our pharmacy. Thank you once again and we hope to work with you soon.
Respectfully Yours,
Thomas G. Marks R. Ph.
