Strive Pharmacy overview

Clinics that rely on one compounding pharmacy lose orders to backorders, slow shipping and rejected scripts, so AffinityRx, a multi-pharmacy marketplace, lets a clinic order from Strive Pharmacy alongside 15+ other vetted pharmacies through one portal, with the order rerouted to the next favorite pharmacy within 1–2 minutes if Strive Pharmacy is out of stock or rejects it. Strive Pharmacy is a 503A compounding pharmacy in Gilbert, AZ on AffinityRx. Clinics can order 2 compounded medications from Strive Pharmacy through AffinityRx, including Glutathione and NAD+, with clinic prices starting at $45.00. Strive Pharmacy states it holds PCAB, NABP, and LegitScript accreditation; AffinityRx has not yet verified this.

Strive Pharmacy is a multi-location compounding pharmacy group headquartered in Gilbert, Arizona, with pharmacies in Arizona, Texas, California, Virginia, Missouri and Florida.

How AffinityRx vets Strive Pharmacy

AffinityRx vets every compounding pharmacy for clinics, and only 9% of the pharmacies AffinityRx reviews pass. Strive Pharmacy is one of the pharmacies that passed.

AffinityRx reviews each pharmacy in five areas:

  • Compliance: state licensures, USP <795>, <797> and <800>, and certifications such as LegitScript, PCAB, ACHC and NABP.
  • Product: third-party certificates of analysis (COAs), sterility and endotoxin testing, and beyond-use dates.
  • Track record: Form 483s, recalls, FDA actions and the pharmacist-in-charge background.
  • Market feedback: clinic and patient ratings and reviews, and Reddit threads.
  • Operations: shipping times, stock and cold-chain validation.

Public credentials such as license numbers and accreditation proof are published on this profile, and backing documents such as COAs are available to clinics on request.

Warning letters and recalls

If Strive Pharmacy receives an FDA warning letter or recall, AffinityRx notifies clinics and updates this profile. Clinics can switch Strive Pharmacy off in their AffinityRx portal at any time.

Favorites and failover

Clinics pick a pharmacy at checkout, or pre-set a primary pharmacy plus second and third favorites. If the primary pharmacy is out of stock or rejects an order, AffinityRx reroutes it to the next favorite within 1–2 minutes. Prescriber re-sign is the default; turning on auto re-sign removes that step. Read how this works on the backorders page, and see how AffinityRx compares with other compounding pharmacy marketplaces.

Strive Pharmacy licenses and identifiers

Strive Pharmacy's license and registry identifiers, as recorded in public records. Verify any license directly with the issuing board before relying on it.
