Improving patient outcomes with medication you trust.

In traditional compounding pharmacies, each medication can vary in potency, purity, and sterility. Not at Epicur Pharma®.

As an FDA-registered 503B outsourcing facility, we manufacture drugs with reliable quality, potency, and sterility from batch to batch. We’re manufacturing safer medications so you can prescribe with confidence—every time.

503B Compounding for Uncompromised Quality

Epicur Pharma brings a unique advantage to the veterinary industry—consistency and reliability in every medication.

A division of Stokes Healthcare and a sister company of Stokes Pharmacy, Epicur® was developed in 2016 to align with the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) recommended guidelines and requirements for producing high-quality manufactured drugs.

The 503B standards put in place reflect current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), the same regulations in place for human pharmaceuticals. 

Epicur is dedicated to raising the standards in animal healthcare. We offer one of the largest selections of manufactured medications that are traditionally compounded. Our commitment to drug consistency and quality emphasizes our devotion to patient safety.
