Important Disclaimer: Compounded medications are not reviewed or approved by the FDA for safety or efficacy. Suitability and formulation are determined by your prescribing provider. Not all patients will be prescribed a compounded medication.

Can I get the same formula I was given by Apostrophe?

It depends. Your consultation request will be evaluated by a board-certified dermatologist who will evaluate your request and issue a prescription for what they consider is the best treatment for you. If you wish to continue using a formula you were prescribed via Apostrophe, they will take this into consideration, however, they will prescribe what they think it is the best treatment for you, and you should trust their judgement as they are highly-skilled medical professionals.

In some cases they may not prescribe exactly what you used to get with Apostrophe, but rest assured that you will be receiving a customized formula that is highly-tailored for your skin.

Once your dermatologist issues your prescription, you can order your personalized Foothills medication on Miiskin. You will not be enrolled in a product subscription, you only need to buy your medication as needed.
