Compounding isn't some shady enterprise. Its a standard medical use case. I have to use metronidozol cream on my face, but I'm allergic to some preservatives, so a compounding pharmacy makes a version of metronidozol cream without my allergens.
It's also relatively common for toddlers who need special doses, or for people who can't swallow pills and need liquid formulations.
Compounding is normal.
