Alexandria Gochenauer<\/p><\/div>\n

OXFORD, Miss. \u2013 Alexandria Gochenauer, a University of Mississippi School of Pharmacy<\/a> student, was named one of the winners of the International Academy of Compounding Pharmacists\u2019 Spring Writing Competition.<\/p>\n

Her winning essay also has been accepted for publication in the July-August issue of the International Journal of Pharmaceutical Compounding.<\/p>\n

\u201cI felt honored that my essay was selected as a winner of the student writing competition,\u201d Gochenauer said. \u201cReceiving this distinction encourages me to continue pursuing my interest in compounding pharmacy as a career.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s also exciting to know that I\u2019m going to be published in a well-known journal as a pharmacy student. Not many students have the opportunity to be published, so I feel very fortunate.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gochenauer wrote her essay based on this question: How can compounding pharmacies remain competitive with increased health care costs and reduced rate of insurance reimbursements? The rising fourth-year professional student focused on the customizable nature of compounded medications and how it can lead to cost savings for patients, pharmacies and the health care system as a whole.<\/p>\n

Originally from Republic, Missouri, Gochenauer said her Pharmacy Management and Business Methods class helped her to develop background knowledge for the essay, while Erin Holmes, UM associate professor of pharmacy administration, played a vital role in her search for compounding literature.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlex spent a lot of time (researching) the pharmacy compounding literature to develop her essay,\u201d Holmes said. \u201cThat, combined with her extensive compounding experience and strong writing skills, resulted in a compelling argument that compounding pharmacies can remain financially viable in a dynamic health care market.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gochenauer was inspired to enter the competition by Jim Yawn, an Ole Miss pharmacy alumnus and owner of Uptown Pharmacy in Madison, Mississippi, who actively promotes independent pharmacy practice to students.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlex is truly an exceptional pharmacy student and very deserving of the award,\u201d Yawn said. \u201cAfter getting to know her, I was able to see how self-motivated she is about the pharmacy profession. She showed up to work at the pharmacy poised and ready to do the job, even giving me some helpful compounding tips along the way.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
