  27. Lollipop Mold This mold ensures the proper amount of liquid is used in each lollipop. It holds the stick in place while the liquid hardens.

  28. Ointment Mill An Ointment Mill is used to reduce particle size in compounded products. Creams and ointments are ground through porcelain rollers to ensure fine particle size. Smallest possible particle size is desired so that maximum absorption can be attained.

  29. Balance/Scale This balance/scale is used to ensure accurate weighing of ingredients.

  30. Suppository Mold This mold ensures the proper amount of ingredients is used for each suppository. We can compound rectal and vaginal suppositories.
