Learn about the latest advances in Excipients and Adjuvants in Pharmaceutical Compounding and improve your patient care” 

##IMAGE## Mass-produced medicine has led to many advances in contemporary medicine, and many patients have a found a cure for their diseases.

However, mass-produced medicine does not cover all therapeutic needs. For various reasons, there are therapeutic gaps that only the customized medicine can fill.

Pharmaceutical compounding or, nowadays, "customized medicine" is the essence of the pharmaceutical profession. Customized patient care was the starting point of human medicine.

The pharmaceutical compound, understood as the medicine intended for an individual patient, prepared by or under the direction of a pharmacist, to expressly comply with a detailed medical prescription for the medicinal substances in question, requires that work complies with strict and faithfully reproducible procedural guidelines. Thus, pharmacists need to be up-to-date and undergo continuous professional development on the requisite knowledge and relevant standards for the correct preparation and quality control of pharmaceutical compounds.

The objective of this program is to introduce pharmacists to a unique and exclusive field in their profession, so that they can respond to therapeutic gaps with the formulation of customized medicine which matches the quality and efficacy of a mass-produced medicinal product.
