Dermatology Compounding

Dermatologic medications can be hard to find or limited in strength and formulation. Compounding lets providers prescribe exactly what each patient's skin needs.

Our pharmacist specializes in personalized compounds for a wide range of dermatologic needs. We collaborate closely with prescribers to develop patient-specific preparations based on the desired strength, dosage form and individual treatment considerations.

Common dermatologic conditions

Acne. Providers often prescribe combinations of several active ingredients in one cream.

Melasma and hyperpigmentation. Compounded topicals may be part of an individualized plan for uneven skin tone or dark spots.

Rosacea. Providers may prescribe combination creams as part of a rosacea treatment plan.

Hair loss. Compounded topical solutions can support treatment plans for hair thinning or androgenic alopecia.

Eczema and dermatitis. Compounding allows customized strengths or combinations, including fragrance-free options.

Psoriasis. Providers may prescribe custom-strength creams as part of a psoriasis treatment plan.

Peptide-based custom creams

We also compound prescriptions in ExoBlue™, a peptide-rich cream base, adding the active ingredients and strengths your provider prescribes. Learn about ExoBlue™ custom compounding.

Compounded medications require a prescription from a licensed healthcare provider and are not FDA approved. This page is educational and is not medical advice.

How it works

Step 1

Send your prescription

Your provider e-prescribes to EpitomeRx, faxes the prescription to 626.631.6151, or calls it in. Already have a prescription elsewhere? We can transfer it.

Step 2

We review and call you

A pharmacist checks the prescription for accuracy and formulation needs, then we call you to confirm details, pricing, timing and delivery. Payment is collected before we compound.

Step 3

We compound it

Your medication is prepared in our Arcadia laboratory to your provider's exact instructions and checked before it is dispensed.

Step 4

Delivered to your door

We ship anywhere in California. Local pickup in Arcadia is available by calling ahead.
