Supporting Mental Health with Personalized Care

Recognizing Mental Health Awareness Month with Helios Laboratories

May is Mental Health Awareness Month—an opportunity to bring attention to the importance of mental well-being and encourage open conversations around mental health. In Canada, 1 in 5 people will experience a mental health problem or illness in any given year. These challenges affect people of all ages and walks of life, and they can impact relationships, productivity, and overall quality of life.

At Helios Laboratories, we believe in the power of personalized care to support both physical and mental well-being. That’s why we’re proud to offer custom-compounded solutions that can play a role in managing mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, and more.

Why Personalized Medication Matters in Mental Health

Mental health is not one-size-fits-all. What works well for one patient may not be ideal for another. Factors like age, body weight, metabolism, sensitivities, and co-existing conditions can all affect how a medication works.

Through compounding, pharmacists and prescribers can tailor medications to suit individual needs by adjusting:

  • Dosage strengths to prevent under- or over-medication
  • Delivery methods, including capsules, liquids, sublingual drops, or topical formulations
  • Inactive ingredients, to eliminate allergens or unnecessary additives

This level of customization can improve treatment adherence, reduce side effects, and lead to better outcomes for patients managing mental health concerns.

Supporting Pharmacies and Prescribers

Helios Laboratories works alongside pharmacies and healthcare providers to simplify the process of prescribing and dispensing compounded medications. Our centralized approach allows clinics and pharmacies to offer specialized treatments—without the added burden of in-house compounding.

Whether you’re looking to provide compounded antidepressants, anxiolytics, or sleep-supportive formulations, we’re here to help with:

  • Compliant and high-quality custom formulations
  • Efficient prescription processing and delivery
  • Responsive support to ensure continuity of care

Committed to Compassionate Care

Mental health is just as important as physical health, and access to effective treatment can make a life-changing difference. By working together with pharmacies and prescribers, we aim to bridge the gap between personalized care and accessibility—so every patient has the support they need.

Let’s continue to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and work toward a future where mental health support is accessible, compassionate, and personalized.
