Compounding is the technique of putting together and manufacturing customized medicines for patients. According to the practitioner's prescription, these drugs are made with the component ingredients blended together in the dosage form and strength recommended. The skilled pharmacists have been given permission to customize the medicine for the patient, taking into account their individual requirements such as strength, dose forms, flavors, and the exclusion of components to which the patient is allergic or sensitive. On the other hand, compound pharmaceuticals are not FDA authorized, implying that the FDA does not monitor the safety and effectiveness of these medications. State boards of pharmacy are in charge of ensuring that state-licensed pharmacies that make compound medications adhere to the FDCA's section 503A requirements. Compounding pharmacies are divided into sterile and non-sterile facilities for inspection purposes.

One of the key growth drivers in the compounding pharmacies market are the increasing number of patent expirations. The shortage of medications in the United States, as stated by the United States Food and Drug Administration, as well as similar shortages worldwide; the various advantages of compounding drugs, such as customization according to the patients' needs, all contribute to the market's growth. However, a lack of effective controls in some places may result in the sale of contaminated pharmaceuticals, which could have a detrimental influence on the market.
