Member Boards Move Swiftly to Implement NABP Compounding Action Plan and to Strengthen State Regulation of Compounding Pharmacies

NABP member boards of pharmacy are moving swiftly to implement the Compounding Action Plan initiated by state boards of pharmacy and NABP in November 2012. The plan includes continued collaboration on the Iowa nonresident inspection program, sharing of inspection results and related actions, and ongoing dialogue. Boards are also taking actions in their respective states through bolstering inspections and inspector training and considering new rules and legislation to further strengthen the regulation of compounding pharmacies. The full article about boards of pharmacy actions is available in the March 2013 NABP Newsletter (PDF).
