DID YOU KNOW?

The human foot is a complex structure.

  • It contains 26 bones-plus muscles, nerves, ligaments, and blood vessels-and is designed for balance and mobility.
  • The 52 bones in the feet make up about one-fourth of all the bones in the human body.

PRESCRIPTION COMPOUNDING FOR PODIATRY

Bayview Pharmacy's compounding pharmacists have the capabilities to customize preparations to treat conditions of the foot and ankle that improve therapeutic outcomes, reduce side effects, and save patients time and money. 

Compounding medications for conditions that podiatrists treat allows for...

  • ...unique delivery vehicles to be utilized (i.e. topical cream, iontophoresis solution, nail lacquer); which makes administering the medication easier, more pleasant, and potentially more effective
  • ...medicines to be concentrated based on individual need, which maximizes therapeutic outcomes while reducing side effects 
  • ...multiple medications, that have been shown to have modest effects individually, to be combined to form a more potent customized medication. This may speed the healing process and save patients valuable time and money, eliminating needlessly switching from one therapy to the next

This portion of our website focuses on the broad spectrum of foot and ankle conditions that patients experience, and the pharmacologic measures that compounding pharmacies, such as Bayview Pharmacy, may provide to relieve these conditions.
