What we do

Compounding essentials

In 1990, Fagron started supplying pharmaceutical grade raw materials in smaller quantities to pharmacies in the Netherlands. With an increase in the demand and our continuous effort to provide value to the compounding pharmacies, we have expanded the product line with equipment and supplies. Today we support pharmacists worldwide and enable them to provide treatments of the highest quality and safety, while also optimizing the compounding process with our devices and packaging. Our portfolio of essentials includes pharmaceutical raw materials, equipment, and supplies needed to compound medicine in the pharmacy. Equipment and supplies are available worldwide through FagronLab.

Brands

With over 400 pharmacists within Fagron, we are focused on providing a unique range of high-quality products based on scientific data and insights. The Fagron Brands are unique concepts developed by our R&D specialists to provide pharmacies and clients with exclusive pharmaceutical dosage forms and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). We can provide solutions for all steps inside a compounding setting, either equipment, excipients, APIs, packaging, and much more.

Compounding services for pharmacies

Next to pharmaceutical raw materials and vehicles, Fagron began delivering non-sterile ready-to-dispense compounded medicine to pharmacies in order to support them further. At the same time, pharmacies, prompted by the increasingly stricter regulations and focus on quality and efficiency, are outsourcing their sterile compounding more and more. At Fagron, we cater to this need by also supplying sterile ready-to-administer medicines to hospital pharmacies in those countries where the regulations allow these activities. These sterile and non-sterile products, which meet the specific needs of patients, are categorized under the “Compounding Services” segment and are produced by Fagron in compounding facilities in Europe, the United States, Colombia, Israel, and South Africa. These personalized medicines are supplied to pharmacies, hospitals, and clinics. Compounding Services uses the raw materials from Essentials and the vehicles from Brands for its compounding activities.

Academy

Fagron operates in a knowledge-intensive niche market. It is of great importance that the link to the final patient, the prescribers, and pharmacists, has thorough knowledge of the services and products that Fagron offers. Informing and training prescribers and pharmacists about compounding by organizing Fagron Academies in the countries where we operate is therefore an integral part of the strategy. Through training, courses and educational programs, Fagron Academy increases and improves the compounding knowledge and skills of prescribers and pharmacists. We offer the most extensive training and educational opportunities for, among other things, compounding techniques, the use of materials, administration forms and quality and safety procedures. Digitization is playing an increasingly greater role in the training courses and transfer of knowledge as a whole.


Facilities in The Netherlands

If registered medicines do not suit you, we at Fagron, together with our compounding pharmacies, try to offer the best solutions in the form of customized pharmaceutical solutions. Each preparation facility works in accordance with GMP and has its own specialization. In collaboration with these compounding pharmacies, Fagron offers the largest range with the convenience of a single point of contact.

Sterile services

Fagron operates in a knowledge-intensive niche market. It is very important that the link to the end patient, the prescribers and pharmacists, have a thorough knowledge of the services and products offered by Fagron. Informing and training prescribers and pharmacists about compounding by organizing Fagron Academy in the countries where we operate is therefore an integral part of the strategy. Through training, courses and educational programmes, the Fagron Academy increases and improves the compounding knowledge and skills of prescribers and pharmacists. We offer the most comprehensive training and education in areas such as compounding techniques, use of materials, dosage forms, and quality and safety procedures. Digitalization plays an increasingly important role in training and knowledge transfer.


Premium pharmaceuticals 

In addition to pharmaceutical raw materials and vehicles, Fagron began supplying non-sterile, ready-to-use compounded medicine to pharmacies to further support them. At the same time, pharmacies are increasingly outsourcing their sterile compounding, driven by increasingly stringent regulations and a focus on quality and efficiency. At Fagron, we are responding to this need by also supplying sterile, ready-to-use medicine to hospital pharmacies in those countries where regulations permit this activity. These sterile and non-sterile products, which meet the specific needs of patients, are included in the Compounding Services segment and are produced by Fagron in compounding facilities in Europe, the United States, Colombia, Israel and South Africa. These personalised medicine are supplied to pharmacies, hospitals and clinics. Compounding Services uses Essentials raw materials and Brands vehicles in its compounding activities.
