Compounded Preparations

The Cornell University Hospital for Animals (CUHA) Pharmacy compounds a large variety of medications to meet the specialized needs of different animal species. The integrity and stability of our compound formulas have been thoroughly researched and are referenced by standard pharmaceutical compounding texts such as Trissel's Stability of Compounded Formulations and The International Journal of Pharmaceutical Compounding.

Adding flavoring to liquid medications may help to encourage some pets to accept their medications more readily. While not all commercial products are compatible with flavoring, most of the compounded suspensions which we make can be flavored. Flavoring should be requested at the time the prescription is ordered.
