Larry's Headshot

 
The Compounder is a licensed pharmacy where we make custom preparations from raw ingredients. We have a passion for natural approaches to health. Drugs can help but it's clearly more important to take care of the health we have. When "everyone else" demands drugs to lower cholesterol we ask why. When "most people" agree to swallow pills made from pregnant mare urine we think there's a better choice. Read our site, use it as a health resource, and subscribe to our newsletters. I write them and I only send it when there is something important I think you would want to know about.

August 14, 2008 Shingles Pain Relief
Shingles pain lasts long after the sores have healed. Most often people use an oral pain reliever in the hope they'll get some relief. The pain usually seems worse at night - just like everything seems worse when it's dark and quiet. I've recommended using TRANILAST cream (10%) to relieve itching, and even burn pain. Perhaps it would help relieve some of the pain associated with shingles. Sharon gave it a trial and reported that she was very pleased with the results.

August 7, 2008 Ear Pain Relief
Parents are well aware that their young children often get earaches. Sometimes they're caused by an infection and they need to be treated by a doctor. Often, though, ear pain is the result of changes in air pressure, water in the ear, or even a bubble of trapped air in the ear canal. These situations can usually be handled simply, and without drugs. These simple techniques even work on adults.

July 31, 2008 RLS Treatments Without Drugs
One of our customers asked... " Do you have a product or suggestion to treat or help the RLS? It is causing some sleep issues. The doctor has put me on 0.125 mg of Mirapex. I would prefer something with less side effects etc."  As you probably know, I am not a big fan of using drugs FIRST - unless there are no other options. RLS is a relatively NEW condition. People got relief before the RLS drugs hit the market. How did they do it?

July 24, 2008 FDA Mission Failure
The FDA has a vital role in protecting the health of every American citizen. Recent circumstances suggest that the agency is having difficulty in meeting it's obligation. I've even located a November, 2007 document that points directly to the many inadequacies within the FDA. I wonder how many companies would still be operating "as usual" if such a scathing report had been written about them. Please read this article and seriously consider sharing the report with your legislators.
