Dermatology
A commercial cream that cannot combine the actives on the pad — that’s why St Petersburg clinics call. We compound dermatology compounds patient-by-patient and ship from Florida.

Clinics in St Petersburg can order dermatology compounds through a credentialed 503A account, with five-day compounding and packaging selected for the shipping conditions. St Petersburg is a large city of about 263,553 residents in Pinellas County (U.S. Census Bureau, Vintage 2023 population estimates). Transit after dispatch is typically 1–2 business days.
Service area — shipping, not a storefront
Providers in St Petersburg can discuss patient-specific strengths, dosage forms, and availability for dermatology compounds with our compounding team.
St. Petersburg sits on the same gulf side as our Palm Harbor facility. Pinellas practices get some of the shortest transit times we run — which is useful for BUD-sensitive sterile compounds, not a reason to skip temperature packaging in August.
We do not operate a compounding bench in St Petersburg. Promise Pharmacy is a 503A pharmacy at 31818 US Hwy 19 N, Palm Harbor, FL 34684. Patient-specific compounds for St Petersburg are prepared there, then shipped to the clinic or the patient named on the prescription. Local walk-in service and pickup are not available in St Petersburg.
St Petersburg combines heat and humidity, which is harder on packaging than dry heat alone. Refrigerated preparations for dermatology compounds ship in insulated packaging with season-appropriate cold packs. Typical transit after dispatch is 1–2 business days.
A large market like St Petersburg needs reliable repeat fills. We support repeat prescriptions for dermatology compounds with portal ordering, a named account manager, and five-day compounding.
Every tested batch has a Certificate of Analysis in the provider portal. If a St Petersburg medical director wants the COA on file before the first patient injection, that is a normal request, not a special favor.
Credentialing is not a formality. We check an active Florida-recognized prescribing license (MD, DO, NP, PA, or equivalent) before the account orders dermatology compounds. Testosterone and other controlled substances also need DEA registration.
Federal compounding authority for what we do is 503A of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 353a): a licensed pharmacy, a patient-specific prescription, USP compounding standards. State permission to land the package in St Petersburg sits with the Florida Board of Pharmacy.
Florida has a large provider market with strong telehealth adoption and favorable compounding regulations under 503A. Verify a pharmacy license on the Florida Board of Pharmacy site for current licensure information.
Ordering

How this actually differs
This is a shipping 503A relationship with a Florida pharmacy — not a St Petersburg storefront comparison.

Florida compounding
These are separate programs on the same 503A account — still shipped from Palm Harbor, still not a St Petersburg storefront.
