The Leading Provider of Sterile and Nonsterile Compounding Resources
Compounding is an essential part of pharmacy practice and crucial for patients who are unable to use commercially available formulations of medications. Applying new standards and understanding the risks associated with compounding is a critical aspect of medication and patient safety.

They recently published their latest revisions to the compounding USP chapters <797> and <795>, which will be made official on November 1, 2023. As the leading provider of sterile and nonsterile compounding resources in the industry, we are dedicated to providing our members and customers with timely, accurate, and complete information that incorporates the new standards.
