- Freezer pops
- Troches
- Also known as gummies, troches are ideal dosage forms for children, patients who have difficulty swallowing medication, or for medications that have to stay in contact with the oral mucosa.

Suppositories remain a popular dosage form to this day, often being the easiest and even most effective way to administer specific medicines. We now have a unique form of suppositories called “Rectal Rockets.” These suppositories resemble the shape of a rocket ship and facilitate simultaneous internal and external administration of medications.
Sterile prescription compounding is one of our specialties, and our laboratory autoclave provides the most effective method by which to sterilize not only the tools and equipment we use and dispense, but also the sterile medicines that we deliver.
