Contact us and we will be glad to email you an order form. We can also customize order forms to best suit your clinic's needs.

Each injectable IV product will have the osmolarity listed on the label located on the vial.

As soon as we receive your prescription, you will receive a call from us. We will obtain some basic information from you and discuss payment/shipping options. If you have not heard from us within 24 hours of your physician sending us your prescription, feel free to give us a call at (877) 562-8577.

Your healthcare provider likely prescribed you a medication that is not available in a traditional retail pharmacy and requires a compounding pharmacy, like ours, to make the medication specifically for you based on your healthcare provider's specifications.

Since many prescribers realize that compounded product testing and quality control vary from pharmacy to pharmacy, many have come to trust Empower based on our reputation of delivering consistent, high-quality compounded medication. We test and produce all our products according to all applicable FDA and USP standards, often above and beyond them. Learn about our quality systems.

Yes. All of our medications require a prescription from a licensed prescriber. Your healthcare provider can call in your prescription at (877) 562-8577 or fax it to (832) 678-4419.

Our pharmacists are more than happy to call your doctor or the pharmacy where your prescription is and have it transferred to us.

Yes, we would be happy to contact your doctor. Please note: Refill authorization response time from doctors' offices may vary.

Yes. You can request a refill through our Prescription Refill page.

We do not refill medications automatically. Many of our medications are prescribed "as needed," and we do not want to bill a patient for medication they may no longer need. Also, if the prescription is automatically refilled and requires shipment, we cannot ensure that the recipient will be present to accept the package once delivered.

The time to fill/compound each prescription varies. Most orders are shipped within 7 business days if the prescription is received by 7:00 PM CST.

PLEASE NOTE: Upon receiving a prescription from your physician, we will first get your approval before filling the prescription unless otherwise specified.

When filling out our refill request form, if you would like your prescription shipped to you, please provide shipping details, and select your preferred shipping method.

If you would like to pick up your prescription directly from our facility, please select "Patient Pickup" as your shipping method.

For controlled substances or high-dollar packages, we require a signature to ensure proper delivery.

Yes. As long as your designated representative picking up your medication knows your name and birth date, can provide their personal identification, and is over 18 years of age, they can pick up your prescription.

We hold all medications for two weeks for pick up. During this time, we will have an automated system call you three times to inform you that your prescription is ready for pick up.

Upon receiving a prescription from your doctor, we do not automatically fill it until we get approval from you to do so.

We can. If you are a new patient and are interested, we will ask for your email address upon obtaining your demographic information. If you are a current patient and are interested, please call and provide us with your email address so that you may receive tracking information the next time you refill your prescription(s).
