Veterinarian

Diplomat Pharmacy works with medical specialists in all fields to customize medications to the specific needs of the patient. We are currently working with Veterinarians throughout the country to offer additional options in patient care. We have an extensive library of veterinary pharmaceutical references and technical support available to solve the most difficult problems in dosage formulations and drug delivery. In our newly built facility we have a complete state of the art compounding lab with an aseptic clean room for sterile products. We compound using pure bulk powders or commercially available products as our starting point. We have access to all types of containers, molds, capsules, and flavored bases to properly compound your order.

Why Specialty Pharmacy Care

Diplomat can compound Medications that are:
  • Discontinued by the manufacturer
  • Unavailable in the desired dosage form
  • Higher or lower strength than existing products
  • Not economically feasible to manufacture
  • In flavors or dosage forms that match the breed of the animal
  • Customized to the exact needs of the patient
  • Topical Medication – applied to the inner ear

Flavored Medications

Diplomat compounds tasty medications that are just the right size, shape, and consistency for domestic or exotic animals. Various flavors are available – such as fish for cats, beef or liver for dogs, tutti frutti for birds, banana for exotics, etc. We can also appropriately color medications to make them more appealing to exotic species.

Easy To Use Doses

Whether it’s a medicated treat, liquid concentrate, or a yummy flavor that’s needed, we can help! Tablets or injectables can be reformulated into suspensions or transdermal gels. We can compound medications into specialized dosage forms and shapes to cater to individual preferences – such as ear drops, rectal suppositories, topical sprays, and dusting powders. Have you ever thought of applying medication to the inside of a animals ear for systemic absorption? Transdermal delivery is particularly useful in patients who should not be stressed due to cardiovascular or hypertensive problems, and owners no longer have to risk injury from a resistant animal.

Unique Dispensing Devices

Diplomat offers a variety of unique dispensing devices to simplify administration and improve compliance. For example oral and topical syringes provide a simple means of accurately measuring and administering medication, and are particularly useful when the dose is fluctuating. Accordion like puffers are ideal for applying powder to difficult-to-reach areas like the ear canal. A dauber bottle is excellent for topical application such as painting medication on a hoof. Sustained release dosage forms can be compounded.

Unavailable Medications

When medications are temporarily out-of-stock or discontinued, or when human preparations are removed from the market, it can limit veterinary options. Using the highest standards, precision equipment, and quality bulk chemicals, Diplomat can usually compound the needed medication.

Combination Preparations

If there are no chemical incompatibilities or stability concerns, we can combine various medications into a single preparation. This can simplify administration and is often more cost effective than using numerous drugs from several different sources.

Ideal Strength & Size

Diplomat can create a preparation which contains the most appropriate dosage for a specific animal. There’s no need for clients to administer partial tablets, dilute solutions, or give high volume doses.We make medicine that is easier to administer and often more economical.
