Backordered medications shouldn't keep your patients waiting. Mixwell Compounding Pharmacy in Chino, CA helps veterinary practices across Southern California source hard-to-find antibiotics and supportive medications — with fast turnaround, competitive pricing, and a compounding specialist who knows veterinary formulations inside and out.

⏱️

The lead-time problem every clinic knows. When a drug is backordered or discontinued, the typical mail-order compounding route can leave your patient waiting a week or more for relief. For a vomiting, anorexic, or painful animal, that delay isn't acceptable. Mixwell is your local Southern California alternative — faster turnaround and direct pharmacist access, not a distant fulfillment center.

Why Veterinary Practices Partner With Mixwell

Fast turnaround

Most compounded formulations ready in 1–3 business days — not the long lead times of national mail-order fulfillment.

💰

Competitive pricing

Fair, transparent pricing on compounded veterinary preparations. Fast quotes — just call or fax.

📋

Hard-to-source meds

When commercial products are backordered or discontinued, we compound to your exact specifications.

📍

Local & responsive

A Southern California pharmacy with direct pharmacist access — no call-center runaround.

Sourcing Through National Shortages

The FDA maintains an active drug shortage database, and veterinary practices have felt the impact firsthand — supportive care and GI medications have repeatedly cycled on and off shortage in recent years. When a manufacturer can't supply a product, or a commercial form is discontinued, compounding from bulk active pharmaceutical ingredient is often the path to keep your patient on therapy.

Mixwell helps your practice bridge those gaps with compounded oral and topical formulations prepared to your prescription.

Commonly Requested Veterinary Formulations

🧪 GI & Supportive Care

Maropitant Anti-nausea / antiemetic
Cisapride GI prokinetic / motility
Metoclopramide Antiemetic / prokinetic

💊 Cardiac, Endocrine & Antibiotics

Pimobendan Cardiac support
Methimazole Feline hyperthyroidism
Metronidazole Antibiotic / antiprotozoal
Doxycycline Broad-spectrum antibiotic

These are common examples — not a complete list. If you need a specific medication, strength, or dosage form, call us. Chances are we can help.

Dosage Forms Built for Difficult Patients

💧 Flavored oral suspensions 💊 Capsules (incl. tiny doses) 🧴 Transdermal gels 🥩 Flavored chews & treats

For cats who won't take a pill, exotics and small mammals needing micro-doses, or dogs who detect medication in food — a custom flavored or transdermal formulation can make the difference between a prescription that's filled and one that's abandoned. We compound to match your exact concentration and route.
