America's Compounding Center is committed to providing physicians, in Newton and the surrounding communities, with the ability to offer solutions to the medicinal problems facing their patients. Compounding offers an opportunity to customize the treatment for a specific patient for a specific disease state. Medications can be compounded for the specific needs of the patient by providing options of dispensing through forms that are not commercially available, such as liquids, capsules, suppositories, troches, or transdermal forms. The compounding pharmacist also has the ability to customize and dispense medications which are no longer commercially available. Compounding enables physicians to prescribe medications in dosage strengths not manufactured commercially. Through compounding, the pharmacist can customize medications which are lactose free, sugar-free, corn free, gluten free, preservative free and flavored to the patients' choice. The pharmacist is also able to add inactive ingredients, such as acidophilus, to medications to cut down on certain side effects. In most cases we are able to provide same day compounding. Our laboratory is state of the art. Arthur and his staff are dedicated to providing the highest level of quality in all our prescriptions.

America's Compounding Center offers counseling support to all its' patients. A toll free number is available to ensure that any questions a patient has can be addressed in a timely fashion. The pharmacists also work closely with the physicians to ensure that all the patients' needs are met. America's Compounding Center is open Monday - Friday from 8:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. Outside normal hours of operation, as well as weekends, holidays and, in cases of an emergency, the pharmacist on call will work hard to accommodate patients' needs.
