Why I Wake Up in the Morning

Dear CurifyLabs Community,

As an entrepreneur, CEO and mother, who sometimes sleep a few hours less than I should I am happy to share that I wake up every morning with joy. I am proud and excited about the company we have built. CurifyLabs is something completely unique and new in the healthcare technology landscape. Our pioneering innovation is ready to transform manufacturing of personalized medicine and patient care quality globally.

Our journey began with a simple question: How can we make medication preparation safer, faster, and more accessible? The answer led us to develop our state-of-the-art automated system, which ensures precision and efficiency in the preparation of non-sterile dosage forms. This technology is not just a step forward in compounding; it's a leap towards redefining personalized medicine.

The significance of non-sterile compounding cannot be understated. It involves the preparation of medications tailored to the needs of individual patients, often used in settings ranging from pediatrics and oncology to pain management and hormone replacement therapy. This process is still manual, time-consuming, and prone to human error, limiting the potential for scalability and consistency in patient care.

When I speak with people outside of the pharma industry, many are truly surprised to hear that a pestle and mortar is still a common tool in compounding pharmacies. In fact, many don’t even know that pharmacies still prepare personalized medicines, because they are in a lucky position to benefit from market authorized medicines. Then again sometimes, I meet people who have a personal experience of compounded medicines. To hear about the stress of trying to find a compounding pharmacy in the middle of the night, when you’re running low on that extremely vital medicine for your child. Or the pregnant mother, who is splitting toxic pills for her cancer patient child in her kitchen.

Our automated non-sterile compounding technology addresses these challenges head-on. It offers unprecedented accuracy and reduces the potential for compounding errors, enhancing patient safety. Furthermore, it liberates pharmacists from the labor-intensive processes of the past, allowing them more time to focus on patient consultation and care management. Most importantly, it allows better treatments for vulnerable patients who deserve the very best treatment.

At CurifyLabs, we believe that technology should serve as a bridge to better health outcomes. Our system is designed not only to improve the efficiency and safety of pharmacy preparations but also to integrate seamlessly with existing pharmacy management systems, ensuring a smooth workflow and a better user experience.

As we move forward, our focus remains on continuous improvement and expansion. We are dedicated to improving our technology further, making it even more adaptable and accessible to healthcare providers worldwide. Our goal is clear: to ensure that every patient receives the precise medication they need, when they need it, with the highest standards of safety and efficiency.

We are proud to be pioneers in this vital area of healthcare and are excited about the future possibilities. I am extremely grateful to our talented team and our customers who have joined us on this journey. Together, we are not just changing how medicines are compounded; we are enabling a new era of personalized medicine. Some day in the future we will wonder how it was possible that medicines were manufactured with a “one size fits all approach” for such a long time. And, as a mother, I’m happy to know that my children will have access to better treatments in the future.

Thank you for your continued support and belief in CurifyLabs.

Warm regards,

Charlotta Topelius
