Atlas Drug and Nutrition Center is a New Jersey Compounding Pharmacy specializing in compounded medications in New Jersey. Atlas Drug believes that knowledge can be empowering, especially when it comes to health. The more we understand our bodies, the more committed we become to getting better. Our on-staff clinical nutritionists and pharmacists offer nutritional counseling and work closely with doctors to help evaluate a patients history, symptoms and possible outcomes. Testing is a crucial element in any plan using bioidentical hormone replacement therapy.
After meeting with one of our pharmacists, he can recommend a take home saliva panel to collect your sample and mail out to the lab for analysis or you may choose to have your doctor do the testing. One of the beauties of bio-identical hormone restoration is dosing individualization. Your doctor can order a prescription customized just for you and not what’s just made by a manufacture.
Whether it’s more estrogen, less progesterone and adding some DHEA to the formula, your doctor is customizing it based on your needs. Many symptoms of peri-menopause and menopause such as low libido, moodiness, sleep disturbances, hot flashes can be greatly reduced or eliminated using appropriate Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy.
Accuracy is very important to us. On a monthly basis, our pharmacists routinely send batches of our compounds to be independently tested. Making sure that what the doctor ordered for you, if what you are receiving.

Our Mission
We believe that knowledge can be empowering. The more we understand our bodies and the mechanisms that cause injuries, the more committed we become to getting better. As a pharmacist, our extensive training in biochemistry, allows us the ability to examine disease.
Our pharmacy is devoted to educating you about your body, how it works and how to heal it. We believe in working with our patients as partners, to learn from each other in our journey together to maximize health.
Your treatment plan may include dietary recommendations, nutritional supplements, lifestyle modification, evaluation of current drug therapy and consultation with your current Physician or Practitioner.
We assess treatment plans holistically, functionally and naturally. The initial stage of therapy includes an evaluation and treatment plan. Follow-up, reevaluation, treatments and patient education are the focal points of the secondary phase. The final stage of therapy involves the patient reclaiming control over their health. We continue to provide assistance and support to all of our patients through the process of becoming aware of their role in maintaining health.
