Individually prepared medications offer solutions according to individual requirements:
- dosage flexibility (it is not always the case that the medication meets the needs of the patient, and often changing the strength of the drug and adjusting the dosage is necessary)
- changing the means of application (tailor-made medications offer galennical means, adapted to the needs of care for premature babies, infants, seniors and patients with other specific needs)
- lack of registered medicines (drugs produced in bulk are often susceptible to temporary or complete cessation of production)
- combination therapy (a well-chosen combination of the necessary active substances may partially or fully replace treatment with multiple medications, with the same or a better outcome for the patient)
- home healthcare (tailor-made medication can meet patient requirements in home healthcare, e.g., complete parenteral nutrition)
- treatment of rare diseases (the needs of patients with rare diseases do not always comply with standard therapies)
- palliative care (tailor-made preparation of many different forms of medication is essential for the palliative care of the incurably ill)
- preparation of intravenous mixtures (many life-saving drugs with intravenous administration given during hospitalization are IPLP)
- better control of the treatment (tailor-made prepared medicine allows patients and their caregivers, pharmacists and doctors to improve compliance or adherence to the treatment)
- socio-economic benefits (a notable consequence of tailor-made medications is reduced waste of medication)
- trends in tailor-made medications (new forms of medicine offer new possibilities for individualized therapy)
