There are many sides to personalized medicine, and genetic testing is just one. Another cropped up last week in an acquisition made by Restore Health, a privately held Wisconsin company that provides personalized medicines to health care providers across the United States. Its target was Diplomat Pharmacy’s (NYSE: DPLO) compounding pharmacy business, which includes preparation of personalized medicines for patients, and compounding pharmacists who work with prescribers to customize medication to meet specific patient health needs. The deal frees up Diplomat to focus on its core specialty pharmacy operations, which were bolstered with its acquisition of Burman’s Specialty Pharmacy for $82.8 million back in June, and BioRx, LLC for $315 million in February.
