High-quality Veterinary Compounding Services

Animals deserve the same precision and compassion in medicine that humans do. A&O Compounding Pharmacy provides customized veterinary formulations designed to meet the unique needs of each species, condition, and dosage requirement.

We partner with veterinarians across California to create safe, effective medications that improve compliance, comfort, and outcomes for animal patients - ranging from household pets to exotic and large animals. Every formulation is compounded with the same quality and sterility standards as our human medications, because every patient, no matter their size, deserves exceptional care.

Custom Compounded Medication Capsules – A&O Compounding Pharmacy

Customized Formulations for Veterinary Medicine

No two animals metabolize medications in the same way. Compounding allows veterinarians to tailor therapies to each patient’s specific needs, from species differences to taste preferences and administration routes. Our veterinary compounding capabilities include:

Sterile ophthalmic preparations for ocular health and inflammation
Transdermal gels and topical creams for easy, stress-free application
Flavored oral suspensions or chewables to improve compliance
Injectable medications prepared under strict sterile conditions
Custom strength and combination therapies for complex cases

Each preparation is verified for potency and purity, ensuring precise dosing and safety.

Why Veterinarians Choose Compounded Medications

Every animal has unique needs, and compounded medications allow clinicians to go beyond the limitations of commercially available drugs.

Key benefits include:

Precise dosing for animals of all sizes – from cats to horses
Improved palatability with custom flavors such as chicken, tuna, or banana
Alternative routes of administration for difficult-to-medicate pets
Reproduction of discontinued or unavailable medications
Ability to combine multiple active ingredients into one formulation

Compounding enhances compliance and safety while helping veterinarians deliver more individualized, effective care.

Clinical Insight

Sterile ophthalmic medications like Tacrolimus or Cyclosporine can help manage chronic conditions such as keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye) and corneal inflammation with minimal irritation.
