has anyone used a compound med for their dog?

My vet just ordered me some meds for Wynn which will be a chemo med and an antibiotic. The Road Runner Pharmacy called me and it will take about 3 days to make and then probably 3 days to ship from AZ to MN. Hoping this will work. Never had experience with this before so I am hoping someone has!

Yes. I had to have meds for Anna the German Shepherd compounded. The pharmacy here in AZ did the work and would send the stuff to me in the mail. It worked out just fine.

Hi Linda, Thanks for asking! Wynn is tolerating his meds well but about all they will do is slow down the process a bit. He still has blood every time he pees but can hold his peeing. The meds won't cure his cancer but may slow them down. I have added blackstrap molasses watered down during the day which he loves(Teddy likes it too). I see he is getting cold faster also...wish winter wasn't coming. We take each day at a time but when he starts going down hill I won't let him suffer!

Jane...you make him as comfortable as possible, spoil the hell out of him and just love on him all the time. When the time comes you will know, he will tell you...you know that. I know you won't let him suffer, it's the hardest decision we have to make but we make it out of love. He has had a wonderful life with you and your family, you have given each other so much.
