SERVICES
Celebrating our 10th anniversary this year, IPS was founded in 2001 by a group of pharmacists with a “Vision beyond tomorrow” - to not only be the best at what we do, but to lay the foundations for a company that would be well placed to serve professional pharmacists for years, if not decades, to come. Achieving this required us to become “best in class” across all aspects of service quality and range. Today IPS is still owned and managed by pharmacists and a member of the Association of Commercial Specials Manufacturers - the organisation set up to represent Specials as an important sector of the pharmaceutical industry. IPS Specials is a state-of-the-art cGMP, MHRA licensed manufacturer of 'Special' compounded medications and is able to supply an extensive range of formulations, imported products and Special Obtains. Because every patient is different and has different needs, customised, compounded medications are a vital part of quality medical care. Doctors often prescribe compounded medications for reasons that include (but are not limited to) the following situations:

• When needed medications are discontinued by or generally unavailable from pharmaceutical companies, often because the medications are no longer profitable to manufacture, or there are 'manufacturing/procurement' difficulties for certain products
• When the patient is allergic to certain preservatives, dyes or binders in available off-the-shelf medications
• When treatment requires tailored dosage strengths for patients with unique needs (for example, an infant)
• When a compounder can combine several medications the patient is taking to increase compliance
• When the patient cannot ingest the medication in its commercially available form and a 'Specials' manufacturer can prepare the medication in cream, liquid or other form that the patient can easily take; and when medications require flavour additives to make them more palatable for some patients (usually children)
