Compounding is a way for licensed pharmacists to create a customized medication that meets your pets specific needs. Compounding pharmacists mix or change one or more FDA-approved medications to prepare a special medication for your pet. For example, if a medication is only available in pill form, the pharmacist might create it in liquid, gel, or capsule form.
Your pet may have a specific health need that cannot be addressed by an FDA-approved drug. For example:
Always talk with your veterinarian about any concerns you have about your pets health so they can prescribe a treatment for your pets unique needs.

My human gives me a little bit of Famotidine every night with my dinner. It keeps me from getting an upset stomach the next morning. The value is great. Much cheaper than at our Vet. And Chewy did all the footwork for my Humans. Thanks Chewy
Been using it for 7 weeks and it works great! I can now control my cat's upset stomach
Working great for my pukey kidney cat. Very easy to administer the small amount required. Pixel does notobjectmuch to the flavor, and the product was shipped fast. No complaints, will order again!
I got this because my dog would burp and food would come up. This has helped alot.
My little guy has IBS so he often needs medications. I am so grateful they make this compound in liquid. It is so much easier to give to him without fighting down a pill. I think the chicken flavor adds to my dog being ok with receiving a medication.
This med works great for acid reflux in my Tiny. The vet uses the same meds for double the price. This is cheaper, quick shipping and offered in different flavors
My little dog had an acid stomach for three years until I got this prescription for her. She’s doing great now. The vet said I could give her 1/4 of a Pepcid pill, but that was incredibly hard to manage. This liquid makes it much easier, but the packaging is not good. The oral syringe that was sent broke after a couple uses (I bought a calibrated eye dropper to replace it) and the bottle’s lid can be hard to thread on and get off.
Ordering from Chewy was so easy! I placed order online, they contacted my vet, and a few days later my compounded script was received. Excellent service and price when comparison was made.
Our Havanese have pretty sensitive stomach and also some acidic reflex, which caused him to vomit very often. Famotidine tablets solved it a little - but dividing them evenly and make sure he swallows it was a challenge. Sometimes he still throw up... Now this liquid is very easy to administer - he loves chicken flavor so much we just drops his proper size doze on top of his meal, and he licks his bowl clean )). No more vomiting for several weeks, we are very happy.
We have an almost 18 year old Siamese cat that often has digestive issues. Sometimes we can even smell the acid on her breath. This has been a life saver, because shortly after administering it to her, she seems to feel better, even after vomiting. We're happy that it was recommended and that we still have some on hand. Thanks, Chewy!
