FAQ
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:
- Your pet has trouble taking pills but will take medication in a flavored liquid or other form.
- Your pet needs medication in a strength that is not commercially available.
- Your pet is allergic to a specific ingredient in a medication.
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.

Great option for my cat
My 10 yr old cat was 18 lbs lost 10 lbs in a few weeks, she was drinking and peeing all the time and looked horrible. Vet diagnosed her with diabetes. I wasn't
My 10 yr old cat was 18 lbs lost 10 lbs in a few weeks, she was drinking and peeing all the time and looked horrible. Vet diagnosed her with diabetes. I wasn't successful with shots on a cat years ago. So I did research on transdermal gliipizide. Which you apply to inside ear not in ear canal. Had trouble finding it, but chewy compound lab makes it. My vet knew nothing about it, but was willing to let me try it. So needless to say, after 2 weeks my cat gained back 4 lbs and looks healthy again. Blood sugar was still a little high, but vet was amazed at transformation and wanted me to get her more info on product. I also put cat on epigen 90 cat food which is a grain free high protein, but doesn't require a prescription and is way cheaper. Since the product is nutritional dense. She can eat less. Anyway 1 appy in ear before meals 2x a day is easy for me and the cat starts purring whe I rub the lotion on. She knows she is about to be fed.
Compound bad/ so far ok with transdermal except she won't eat right
As a result of the change in the compound we had been using, we have had to try multiple foods because out cat is not eating like she was before the 3 attempts before
As a result of the change in the compound we had been using, we have had to try multiple foods because out cat is not eating like she was before the 3 attempts before this transdermal. Not a happy kitty or camper :( I am going to put that I would recommend the transdermal because that is not what we had problems with. We were perfectly fine with the compound until you changed the oil (or whatever it was that changed the outcome).
meds given by ear? yes! seems to be helping so far
I am still working with my vet to get dosage adjusted. CC went from 13.5 lbs to 9.5 lbs in 6 months. We thought that was good until she was under 10 lbs. first vet
I am still working with my vet to get dosage adjusted. CC went from 13.5 lbs to 9.5 lbs in 6 months. We thought that was good until she was under 10 lbs. first vet said insulin. I wasn’t ready to jab her twice a day. We discussed whether to have her put down if she appeared to not have a good quality of life and then I researched and found this. It’s rubbed inside a cat’s ear instead of an injection or oral medication. What a relief that I don’t have to fight with her and risk getting bitten or scratched. She still hides sometimes when she sees me with the medicine. Her blood glucose is improving. I take her in every other week for testing until we get the dosage right for her. She’s up to 10 lbs now and gets 4 clicks of the 2.5 dose. I expect it will be increased again. It’s cheaper to adjust gradually with glucose testing than to have the cat stay at vet for expensive testing which can cost over $500. A blood glucose test costs $42 at my vet. Wish more vets knew about administering meds transdermal through a cat’s ear tips. The vet I saw first didn’t know. I had to say something to the second one. Hope this helps as other meds can be transdermal too, like thyroid. Save yourself from bites and scratched and your cat from painful injections.
