Working with Cambria
Prescriber portal
Send compounded prescriptions, reorder common formulas and track status online once the portal opens and your account is approved.
Formulation consults
Discuss strength, base, stability and alternatives with the compounding pharmacist before prescribing.
Clear prescriptions, fewer calls
Include drug, strength, form, quantity, directions, excipients to exclude and the patient-specific reason.
Controlled substances
Please send by certified electronic prescribing (EPCS), or call first to confirm another legally permitted method.
Nonsterile forms, across specialties
Liquids, capsules, topicals, troches, suppositories, rinses, nasal and ear preparations. No injectables, ophthalmics or other sterile products. Hormones and other hazardous drugs are coming once our containment room is built.
Patient-specific only
Every preparation is for an identified patient. Cambria does not supply office-use stock.
Section 503A
Preparations are compounded for identified individual patients on valid prescriptions.

Writing a Prescription for a Compounded Preparation
A complete, specific prescription saves call-backs and helps the pharmacist confirm the preparation is appropriate for the patient.
Compounding Fundamentals
Compounded and FDA-Approved Medications: Understanding the Difference
Approved drugs go through FDA review before marketing. Compounded preparations do not. Knowing what that means helps patients and prescribers choose well.
Dosage Forms
Topical and Transdermal: Why the Distinction Matters
A topical preparation acts where it is applied. A transdermal preparation is meant to pass through the skin into the bloodstream. They are not interchangeable.
