You've now gone off track from the original point. I, too, prefer to use the kits, because they're easier and I'm lazy.Oh a study with 12 people over 5 days...case closed then I guess. So go ahead and keep compounding your salty mess of a suspension that only stays somewhat uniformly suspended for about a minute and i will use the kit. I will use it because it tastes better, because I'm lazy, because third party reimbursement/discount cards knock down compound payment to about $20, because im in retail and not a compound setting, and because despite doing this job for 20 years and taking a wet board I'm not smart/snarky enough to dare question the value/legitimacy of this particular compound. To all you new grads just remember this isn't a hard science, it's a practice. You will do things and dispense things that are backed up by studies(with more than 12 people) and it will turn out later that not only was everyone wrong but that med or compound or viewpoint made things worse. Question everything(and try not to be a know it all jerk when you do).
This was not an option for the child in the original post. Medicaid WILL NOT PAY for the kits because it's on the exclusion list, as it does not have FDA approval as a product. So the mother of a child was given the option of pay $80 a month or have a compound made. And the argument was made that the compound was illegal, and this is 100% false.
