Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions and answers about our sports medicine compounding services.
What sports injuries can compounded medications treat?
We compound medications to treat a wide range of sports-related conditions including muscle aches and cramps, sprains and trigger points, blisters and fever blisters, athlete's foot, nail fungus, carpal tunnel, wounds, dehydration, and hemorrhoids—all with customized formulations.
How are transdermal gels different from oral pain medications?
Transdermal gels are applied directly to the skin over the affected area, delivering medication locally where it's needed most. This targeted approach provides faster relief at the injury site while significantly reducing systemic side effects compared to oral medications.
Can you create custom rehydration formulas for athletes?
Yes! We compound custom rehydrating sports drink formulas designed to restore electrolyte balance and combat dehydration. These can be tailored to the specific needs of the athlete and the demands of their sport.
Do you work with sports trainers and team physicians?
Absolutely! We work directly with physicians, sports trainers, and athletic staff to develop customized compounding solutions. Whether you're treating a professional team or an individual athlete, we can tailor our formulations to your specific protocols.
What wound care options do you offer for athletes?
We offer polyol bandages, tissue regenerating gels, and protective ointments specifically designed to promote rapid wound healing. We also compound flexible collodion preparations for blisters and custom lip balms with sunblock for fever blister prevention.
