Rock-a-Bye, Sweet Baby James:
It’s not all horses at Wedgewood!  We also provide custom-compounded human-use preparations for a number of medical conditions including wet age-related macular degeneration, erectile dysfunction and pre-term birth prevention.  These include 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone caproate, which is used with women who have a history of pre-term delivery.
In September, we were  thrilled to hear about baby James, who was delivered just on time to a grateful mother who had been treated with 17-P compounded by Wedgewood. The new mom, who pointed out that her first treatment was on Mother’s Day, sent this picture and a note to her customer-care representative, John McKelvey: "Thanks again for all your help and prayers.  We had a good outcome and everyone will be forever grateful to you for the important role you played in this baby's life."
