Ball Ground Pharmacy is a compounding pharmacy serving north Georgia.  Read on, because this may be your solution!!

Compounding is the process of preparing, mixing, assembling, packaging and labeling a medication to meet the specific needs of a patient, as prescribed by their physician.  We have the ability to tailor a medication prescription based on a person’s size and tolerance.  This can reduce side-effects and add flavoring for hard to take medications.  Compounding also offers the ability to eliminate preservatives that are in some mass produced medications.  Finding the correct dosage, strength, and combination of drugs for you in its purest form is what compounding is all about!

Ball Ground Pharmacy is a proud member of the Professional Compounding Centers of America (PCCA) which is the industry leader in compounded formularies.  The knowledge base and experience that our pharmacists are able to draw on can be very helpful in those unusual cases.  We, along with your doctor, will strive to get the right formula for YOU to alleviate your ailments.
