GLP-1 Compounds
Commercial GLP-1 shortages that interrupt titration — that’s why Lewiston clinics call. We compound GLP-1 compounds patient-by-patient and ship from Florida.

Clinics in Lewiston can order GLP-1 compounds through a credentialed 503A account, with five-day compounding and packaging selected for the shipping conditions. Lewiston is a smaller city of about 38,404 residents in Androscoggin County (U.S. Census Bureau, Vintage 2023 population estimates). Transit after dispatch is typically 2–4 business days.
Service area — shipping, not a storefront
We compound GLP-1 compounds in Palm Harbor and ship to licensed providers and their patients in Lewiston, Maine.
Lewiston has about 38,404 residents in Androscoggin County (U.S. Census Bureau, Vintage 2023 population estimates). That is not a same-day courier market. 2–4 business days from Palm Harbor is the planning number, and we ship to Lewiston as Lewiston — not as a satellite of a larger metro.
We do not operate a compounding bench in Lewiston. Promise Pharmacy is a 503A pharmacy at 31818 US Hwy 19 N, Palm Harbor, FL 34684. Patient-specific compounds for Lewiston 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 Lewiston.
Amy Patel, RPh, our COO, has more than 25 years in sterile compounding. Clinical questions from Lewiston accounts go to our compounding team in Palm Harbor.
Lewiston is in Androscoggin County. We ship patient-specific compounds to clinics and patients in Lewiston.
Credentialing is not a formality. We check an active Maine-recognized prescribing license (MD, DO, NP, PA, or equivalent) before the account orders GLP-1 compounds. Testosterone and other controlled substances also need DEA registration.
Winter in Maine delays trucks and freezes doorsteps. Refrigerated preparations for GLP-1 compounds ship in insulated packaging with season-appropriate cold packs. If a Lewiston clinic would rather take delivery at the suite than leave a carton on a stoop over a weekend, we ship to the suite. Typical transit after dispatch is 2–4 business days.
Maine has broad telehealth prescribing parity compared with many states, which is why video-first weight-loss clinics and obesity-medicine practices in Lewiston are a normal account type for us. Controlled substances are still federal: testosterone remains Schedule III, and state telehealth laws do not waive Ryan Haight requirements. For the underlying 503A vs 503B split, we keep a longer explainer on 503A vs 503B compounding.
USP chapters 795, 797, and 800 are the compounding standards we work to. Chapter 797 addresses sterile compounding, and Chapter 800 addresses hazardous drug handling. The Maine Board of Pharmacy can tell you how Maine expects a nonresident pharmacy to document that.

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

|---|---|---|

| Ship-to | Clinic or patient in Lewiston | Retail counter or mail-order PBM rules |
| Dosing | Written to the prescription, including custom strengths | Fixed commercial SKUs |
| Quality documentation | Third-party testing; COA in the portal | Manufacturer COA |
| Lewiston transit & packaging | From Palm Harbor; typical 2–4 business days; insulated when the compound needs it | Local pickup or a chain that may not compound this Rx |
