Pain Management Pharmaceuticals

Collier Compounding works with patients and physicians to compound specialized medications for those suffering both chronic and acute pain.

Custom topical creams that combine several different active ingredients may be applied directly to the affected area to block pain right at the source. Using topical medications applied directly to the site of pain reduces many side effects to lower levels than those seen with oral medications. Interactions with other medications and conflicts with chronic conditions are reduced as well.
