Topic Designator: 07 – Compounding | Credit: 1.5 contact hours Available through October 16, 2028

This presentation will outline the required elements for the safe handling of hazardous drugs as well as the challenges in maintaining compliance. While hazardous drugs are essential for patient care, they pose significant risks to health care providers if not handled safely. Even low-level exposures can lead to long-term health effects. Following evidence-based safety practices and regulatory standards, like USP<800>, help protect staff, patients, and the environment. Safe handling is not just compliance—it is a commitment to the well-being of the entire health care team.
