Mary-Louise Condon the founder, owner and, practising pharmacist has over 25 years of experience. Lou started compounding in 2000 and then went on to study postgraduate studies in Anti-ageing Medicine.
In 2013 The Compounding Lab saw a significant investment in a new facility. This formed an important development and a solid foundation for creating the most effective pharmaceutical compounds with superior quality.
In 2019 The Compounding Lab was awarded the runner up for Community Engagement category in the Telstra Business Awards. It was a proud achievement that saw the passion that exists within The Compounding Lab for making a real difference and positive change in people’s lives being acknowledged and rewarded.
My daughter suffers severe allergies and sensitivities; as her mother my job is pretty tough when it comes to providing her with the best care. Until I found The Compounding Lab I was spending countless time and money on pharmaceutical products that ended up being unsuitable for my daughter. The staff at The Compounding Lab have been wonderful to me, making it that much easier when deciding on skin care and medicines for my little girl. I've called on them many times, mostly at the 'eleventh hour' and they have always been prepared to pretty much drop everything and help me in any way they can. I feel I can trust their advice and most importantly I can rest assured that if ever I need either products or information in a hurry I can call on The Compounding Lab. The peace of mind this offers is invaluable, and it makes my life so much easier. I can't recommend them enough!

Everyone is different, and compounding can provide medication that is unique and made just for you. We can create medicine that is:
Almost any kind of prescription can be compounded. This method of medicine creation is ideal for any patient requiring unique dosages and delivery devices, or quantity changes.
The Compounding Lab specialises in bio-identical hormones with multiple hormone combinations in a single dose; pain medication into liposomal bases to avoid unwanted side-effects of oral capsules; and tailor-made vitamins with unique combinations for your specific nutritional health.
Creating wellness is a journey that, when achieved, saves you money. Compounded formulations are exempt from the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) and Medicare and therefore are privately funded. When we dispense a compound, we discuss with you the most cost-effective delivery method and quantity for you. Please contact us to enquire into the potential savings for your medication.
Most health funds cover compounded medications, however some don’t. Please check with your health fund first.
Compounding has been a traditional part of the healthcare system since the science of pharmacy began and is widely used today. The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) has stated that compounded prescriptions are both ethical and legal as long as they are prescribed by a licensed practitioner for the specific patient and compounded by a licensed pharmacy.
The Compounding Lab has been in operation since 2002 and undergoes Quality Care Pharmacy Program (QCPP) accreditation every 2 years though the Pharmacy Guild of Australia. We are a member of the PCCA and rely on our professional relationship with this peak body to maintain quality and innovation.
We understand creating wellness takes time and your health is our priority. Depending on the medication required, our turnaround time is between 24 and 48 hours. It is best to pre-order your prescription in advance. An original copy of the prescription is required before we can proceed with compounding. We can help manage your prescriptions for you with monthly SMS reminders of when your prescription is due to ensure your best health solutions.
