Medical - Medical: Pharmaceuticals / Veterinary-small pets
Spanish term or phrase: Formula cuidada
Estimados, dentro de un folleto de productos veterinarios, como título aparece "Fórmula Cuidada"
"El riguroso seguimiento médico en la elaboración del producto lo convierte casi en una receta magistral"
Lo que me gustaría es recibir de uds. opciones para la palabra "cuidada", yo pensé en "quality formula", no se me ocurre nada más, quizás alguien pueda darme alguna otra idea. Muchas gracias desde ya.

Explanation:
My impression is that the most important thing here is asserting the formula's quality, rather than its careful preparation. "High-quality formula" also works

my first inclination was to go with "secret" (and that might be ok too) ... it's up to you as asker ...

Proprietary liqueurs are those brands usually produced from a closely guarded formula and sold under a trademarked name by only one producer. ...

No sería mala idea incluir la palabra "quality" en algún sitio :)

Asker: "He ahí la madre del borrego" diría un viejo profesor mío. No tengo más contexto. Como es un folleto, luego de eso salta directamente a otra cosa. Pero me has dado una muy buena opción!! Tks

agree  Muriel Vasconcellos: I would follow this approach, but I'd say "high-quality" Since the rest of the text is clear, the title just needs to convey the broad idea.
