Custom Medications for Pets, Farm Animals and Exotic Creatures

If you can’t find your pet’s meds at a regular pharmacy, ABC Compounding Pharmacy in Encino is a great option. We provide veterinary compounding when standard medications are not available. Our pharmacists work with veterinarians to ensure that each pet, of any size, gets the best medication for their individual needs.

Every animal should be comfy and get the care they need. With years of experience and top-of-the-line equipment, our Encino crew provides a wide range of veterinary compounding services to help pets live better and give owners peace of mind.

We’re Here to Help Your Animal

Unlike normal pharmacies that only do human prescriptions, ABC Compounding Pharmacy takes care of people and their pets. We know some animal meds get stopped, are hard to get, or don’t come in the right dose. When that happens, our team can create new formulas based on your vet’s instructions.

Our process lets us adjust the strength of the med, remove ingredients that cause allergies, and make it easier to give. If your dog needs a chewable, your cat wants a flavored liquid, or your bird needs a low dose, we make sure it works and is easy to give.

We always talk to vets. We check doses, tweak formulas, and see how well they work. Our team keeps your animal’s health at the top of the list.

Making Meds More Enjoyable with Flavors

Giving pets medicine can be super stressful. Cats spit out pills. Dogs hide them in their food. Horses don’t like anything new. To help, ABC Pharmacy Encino makes flavored meds that help calm it.

We can transform medicinal products into palatable liquids, chews, or pastes. Consider the case of tuna flavor for cats, beef for dogs, apple for horses, fruit for birds, etc.

When medicine tastes good, pets take it better. This makes things easier and helps them get better. This detail makes the usual struggle smooth.

Emergency Meds and Seizure Help

For animals with long-term issues like epilepsy, getting meds fast can stop big problems. Our pharmacists make anti-seizure meds that work fast, like rectal stuff, gels, and liquids. These soak in quickly when it matters.

We talk to vets to pick the best one for each animal. Some dogs do better with rectal meds during a seizure, while others need daily pills. We make sure the med is stable, right dose, and ready for emergencies.

We help keep your pet safe and make you feel better when caring for animals with issues.

Meds for Farm, Exotic and Zoo Animals

ABC Compounding Pharmacy also helps farm animals, wildlife, and exotic creatures, because they all need different meds.

Farm animals like horses need lots of meds at once. Birds need tiny doses that are easy to give. Zoo animals—like lions—need meds that match their bodies.

This ensures that the medication works and the animals are treated well. It may be the case of using a topical cream for an elephant’s skin, or antibiotics for a parrot. we market our medicines in the right format for the animals.

Every med at ABC Pharmacy Encino is made with care. Our lab uses good gear to measure and test everything. We follow the rules to ensure everything is in order.

Our pharmacists keep up with the latest developments in veterinary medicine. This lets us do things like gels that soak in or liquids that stay good longer.

When you trust us, you’re with a pharmacy that cares about being right, safe, and doing things the right way.

FAQ

Yes, but not all of them can. Most normal pharmacies mainly do human meds. This means they might not have the right meds or know the right amounts for animals. Veterinary pharmacies, like ABC Pharmacy Encino, are pros at filling scripts from vets. We can remake meds that are no longer available, change the doses for different animals, and even switch up the form or flavor to make it easier to give. All pet meds we make are done by licensed pharmacists who know the differences between people and animals. When you get your pet’s script filled by a pet pharmacy, you’re making sure it’s accurate, safe, and follows all the vet rules.

It’s a pharmacy dedicated to treating animals. This means prepping, giving out, and checking on meds made just for animals. Since animals are so different in how they process drugs, their size, and how sensitive they are, pet pharmacists get training to safely make drugs for each animal. A drug safe for people could be bad for cats, or an amount that works for a dog might hurt a bird. Pet pharmacies fill in the gap by giving the right formulas that go with what the vet says and the animal’s needs. At ABC Pharmacy Encino, it’s not just something we do on the side, it’s what we specialize in.

Vet assistants are super important to making sure things are done right and fast when making meds. At ABC Pharmacy Encino, our trained techs and assistants help measure dosage, label meds, check what the vet said, and keep the meds stored right. They talk to vets, pharmacists, and pet owners to clear up questions, set up pickups, and make sure everyone gets their questions answered. Because they help out, our pharmacists can do what they do best —focus on making things correctly while keeping things easy for our clients. Vet assistants are really what keeps the pharmacy running smoothly day to day by turning hard medical stuff into practical care.

The best one is good with quality, safety, price, and taking care of each customer. Online pet pharmacies might say they have the lowest prices, but you can’t really change the formulas, be sure the stuff is fresh, or talk to a person. Local pharmacies like ABC Pharmacy Encino are better because you can talk to the pharmacists, they work with your vet, and they can make meds that are just right for your pet. Our prices show how good everything we use is and how important personal service is. Since each script is made for you, you only pay for what your pet needs, so there’s no extra waste or additives. Most pet owners feel that local pharmacies have the best quality, easiest experience, and are the most trustworthy.

Veterinary compounding is making custom meds for animals when regular stuff doesn’t work. It’s made just for your pet, based on your vet’s advice. This can mean changing the strength, removing ingredients, or making a new product, like a flavored liquid. It’s good because you can change it, unlike regular meds. At ABC Pharmacy Encino, we follow safety rules and talk to vets to make sure it works.

Vets might tell you to do this for reasons. Sometimes, a med gets stopped, but your pet needs it. Or the dose is too high for small animals. Some animals are allergic to stuff in regular meds. Sometimes, pets won’t take bad-tasting meds. Compounding fixes this by matching the med to your pet.

Yes. If trained pharmacists make it right, it’s safe. At ABC Pharmacy Encino, we check everything to follow the rules. We get our ingredients from good places and keep things clean. We can also talk about how to give the med.

We make all sorts of meds for issues, like antibiotics, pain meds, seizure meds, and skin stuff. We can change it to fit your pet—like liquids, chews, creams, or gels. We can also add flavors.

Your vet gives you a prescription with the right dose and directions. Then, either you or your vet sends that to us. We double-check things and get to work making the medicine. Typically, it takes a few days for us to have it ready. You’ll receive a call when it’s ready for you to pick it up and how to give it to your pet. If your pet requires regular refills, we can arrange that as well.
