Safe and Effective Compounded Pet Medications

When it comes to your furry friends, ensuring their health and well-being is a top priority. That’s where compounded pet medications come into play. As an independent pharmacy in Allen, Texas, Allen Family Drug understands that sometimes pets need medications that aren’t available off the shelf. Compounding allows us to create customized medicines tailored to your pet’s specific needs, making it a safe and effective option.

Compounded medications can be particularly beneficial for pets who have allergies or require a specific dosage that isn’t readily available. Our pharmacy services in Texas ensure that your pets receive the highest quality care. These customized formulations can include flavored options that make it easier for your pet to take their medicine, whether it’s a chewable treat or a liquid formulation. Here are a few advantages of using compounded medications for pets:

Customized dosages
Flavored medications
Alternative delivery methods

We pride ourselves on being a trusted compounding pharmacy in Texas. Our pharmacists are well-trained in vet compounding techniques to ensure your pet gets the right medication in the right form. While compounded medications are effective, it’s important to remember that they are not FDA-approved. Always consult your veterinarian before proceeding with a compounded medication to ensure it’s the best choice for your pet.

I had an amazing experience with Allen Family Drug today after they were able to fill a prescription for me in 5 minutes that CVS hasn't been able to fill for 2 months. Emily was so personable and professional- not to mention the pick up process was very efficient. As someone who has only ever used a CVS/Walgreens, I am now a "mom & pop" supporter and they have a forever customer in me!

Be cautious of compound drugs recommended at this facility. They may not be covered by insurance and might be ineffective. I was prescribed a compound medication here - a salicylic acid-based liquid. Anyone with basic chemistry knowledge should be aware that salicylic acid is typically mixed with solvents like alcohol to maintain its liquid form. Proper sealing is crucial to prevent rapid solvent evaporation. Unfortunately, my salicylic acid solution was dispensed in a syringe without properly sealing the opening. As a result, the compound crystallized quickly, clogging the syringe and rendering the medication unusable after just three days. This is unacceptable for a prescribed medication. I strongly recommend that the pharmacy review their compounding and dispensing practices to ensure patients receive effective, usable medications.

Extremely friendly staff, almost immediate service with a staff member every time I have called for an inquiry. Excellent in-store service every visit. Better experience than chain pharmacies in every way.

Transferred my prescription to Allen Family Drug after I found that at my current compounding pharmacy, I would have to wait for an indeterminate number of days for "processing" of my prescription followed by a text where I would then pay. After I paid, THEN I would wait 2-4 days for my prescription to be filled. With hormones replacement therapy, we simply can't wait that long. Called Allen Family Drug and they attentively listened to me. They have a similar process although no payment must be made prior to filling the prescription and their regular process time is 2-3 days. When I asked if there was any way to speed up the process, I was told I would be able to get my prescription the same day. They routinely fill this prescription and are prepared. They called and handled the prescription transfer for me and filled it within hours. THANK YOU!!! Appreciate the courteous phone exchange and speedy service. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I love this place!! After many years of patronizing the more-convenient CVS, I visited Allen Family Drug several months ago. What a pleasure - small, friendly, not crowded, and wonderful service. Almost a throwback to the old neighborhood pharmacy. They carry many unusual and interesting pharmaceuticals, and the pharmacy is efficient and accurate. Huzzah!!
