Did you know there is compounding and there is sterile compounding? We do both at Designer Drugs. And Taylor Ashton explains the difference and what sterile compounding actually is. There aren’t many compounding pharmacies around that have their own onsite Clean Room. Next time you visit our boutique you can take a peek into our sterile Clean Room and see our fully-garbed techs hard at work!

Whether you are a patient or a physician familiar with cataract surgery, you may know that the road to recovery following cataract surgery can be difficult, expensive, and complicated for patients. If you are a physician, we know that you want to reduce complexity for your patients. If you are a patient, you can rest assured that we are working with physicians across the country to help you get through your post-operative regimen in the easiest way!

On Monday, May 3, we will begin our week-long Grand Reopening celebration - FINALLY! Throughout the week, we will be hosting guest speakers, providing giveaways, and releasing new retail items.

CatarActive3® is a compounded eye drop that has an antibiotic, a steroid, and an anti-inflammatory. Typically when patients have cataract surgery or any other type of eye procedure, they have to have three individual drops of the antibiotic, the steroid, and the anti-inflammatory.

I’m sure my patients have questions about compounding. I’m going to start with just the basics today, but (as always) please reach out if your questions aren’t answered here or if – like me – when you answer one question, you generate another.

It’s important to find the exercise that works for you and your body - and your schedule too! If you don’t have time to drive to the gym, change, do an hour-long workout, shower, dress again, then drive back to work - don’t do it! There are several options these days to fit just about anyone’s schedule. Plus, there’s always just taking a walk that is arguably the best daily exercise you could do.
