Established Northern New Jersey Compound Pharmacy Talks about Its Role in Preparing Custom Prescriptions for Patients. They talk most about the Hormone Replacement Therapy for Women.
- (1888PressRelease) November 21, 2012 - WYCKOFF, NJ - Millers Pharmacy, a third generation compound pharmacy established 1929, is weighing in on the controversial hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) subject. HRT is a system of treatment for menopausal and perimenopausal women involving the use of one or more medications designed to artificially boost hormone levels. BHRT is a term used to refer to a type of HRT formulated to contain Estrogen and Progesterone in ratios and quantities prescribed by a Physician to alleviate symptoms of hormonal imbalance. A hot topic these days, HRT is on the minds of millions women. What is safe? Who do you talk to about these concerns? How does one find a compound pharmacist? Millers Pharmacy insists that the first stop for anyone who thinks they may be suffering from a hormone imbalance is their primary Physician or Gynecologist.
Compounding has been a core part of the Millers Pharmacy business since its inception eighty years ago. With the recent publicity surrounding HRT using compounding methods, Millers aims to set the record straight about the role a compound pharmacist can play in a patient's treatment. "When it comes to compound hormone therapy treatments, the key is word is "custom"" says David M. Miller, R.Ph. and President of Millers Pharmacy of Wyckoff, NJ. "We partner with the Physician in analyzing the patient's data and so we can customize a prescription tailored to address the patient's specific symptoms and needs. We then close the triangle by working closely with the patient, answering their questions and concerns throughout the process." Mr. Miller continues, "When you are dealing with something as medically sensitive as hormone replacement therapy and BHRT is the decided course of treatment, the patient often requires more attention than if they were simply filling a prescription. That's where we come in."
Millers Pharmacy is a resource for many different types of compound prescriptions serving Physicians and Veterinarians alike. Compound medications can be administered in a variety of dosage forms including capsules, lozenges, transdermal gels and sterile injectables.
