Mark Gonzalez, PharmD, is a Clinical Compounding Pharmacist at PCCA. He has an encouraging word for those interested in finding a career in Veterinary Compounding. The first word, he says, is to "..dream big."

We’re excited that patients and physicians now have access to Azelastine Hydrochloride USP as an ingredient option in compounded medications. There are some commercial products available, including a combination product, but when those items don’t fit the specific needs of patients, we need to put on our thinking caps and start looking for other options for them. We’re sure that you compounders out there can come up with a few of your own as well.
