Variability in Practices of Compounding Budesonide for Eosinophilic Esophagitis.
American Journal of Gastroenterology 2021 June 2
INTRODUCTION: Little is known about the use of compounded steroids for eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).
METHODS: We conducted a telephone survey of all compounding pharmacies in Michigan and queried about practices and costs of compounded budesonide for EoE.
RESULTS: Of 68 Michigan pharmacies, 93% responded, and 20 (29%) offer compounded budesonide suspension for EoE. Formulations, dose, and instructions for use varied across pharmacies. The mean cost for a 30-day supply was $74.50.
DISCUSSION: Although few compounding pharmacies offer budesonide suspension and there are substantial variations in formulations, this may be a significantly more affordable treatment option for many.
