In pharmacy, compounding typically falls into three main types: sterile compounding, non-sterile compounding, and radioactive compounding. Sterile compounding involves preparing medications that must be free of microorganisms, often for injection or intravenous use. Non-sterile compounding includes the preparation of medications that do not require a sterile environment, such as creams, ointments, and oral solutions. Radioactive compounding involves the preparation of radioactive materials for diagnostic or therapeutic use in medicine.
