Unavailable Medications - Drug Shortages
When a medication is discontinued or in short supply, it can become frustrating for both patients and their providers. Whether due to supply chain disruptions, manufacturing changes, or limited demand, these situations can leave patients and healthcare providers searching for alternatives. That’s where Thera Peak Pharmacy & Compounding can step in to provide customized solutions.
Why Do Medications Become Unavailable?
Medications can become unavailable for several reasons, including:
- Manufacturing shortages or production delays.
- Discontinuation due to limited commercial demand.
- Recalls or changes in formulation.
- Regulatory restrictions or market changes.
When standard options are no longer available, compounded medications can provide an alternative, ensuring continuity of care.
