Compounding pharmacy customer here with experience relevant to compounded supply.
I've ordered from 2 different compounding pharmacies over the past 2 years. The quality variation is real — purity ranged from 94% to 101% of label claim based on independent Janoshik testing.
My current compounder (a 503B facility) has been consistently 98-101% purity across 10 orders. I pay $133/month vs $1,323 for brand. The savings are substantial and the product is equivalent in my experience.

I have been on both brand and compounded, and in the context of compounded supply, my experience has been equivalent with both. The key is finding a reliable 503B pharmacy with independent testing.
