Apotheca Integrative Pharmacy, the pioneer specialty compounding pharmacy in the Philippines, is bolstering its compounding pharmacy line to increase Filipinos’ awareness about the benefits of compounding medicines and offer alternative healthcare options, especially as more people pursue a healthier lifestyle amid the global health crisis.
To further make its products and services accessible to more Filipinos, Apotheca Integrative Pharmacy has launched its website and e-commerce platform. Interested partners and customers may simply sign up for account registration on the website to make orders and payments. The platform also offers real- time updates to help them track their orders every step of the way, aside from informative content about compounding medicine.
Banking on its expertise in compounding — the science of customizing medications to a patient’s specific needs — Apotheca Integrative Pharmacy creates solutions that help advance pharmaceutical innovations in the Philippines. Through the compounding process, AIP is able to remove problem-causing excipients, adjust dosage strengths to make the product more suitable for patients such as infants or the elderly, add flavors for better taste and create alternative form factors such as lozenges, candies, gels, creams, capsules and liquid, thereby making the medicines easily ingestible.
Through compounding, Apotheca Integrative Pharmacy also hopes to help address medicine shortages, a common scenario during surges such as in the case of COVID-19.
“We at Apotheca Integrative Pharmacy are positive that the country’s pharmaceutical market will remain strong and that compounding medicine will gain traction as more Filipinos seek a healthier lifestyle. We will continue to develop high-quality medicines and health solutions tailored to patients’ needs toward helping improve health and patient care in the Philippines,” said Lista./PN
