The USP Clock is Winding Down on the Compounding Chapters Reviewing your Personnel Training with a focus on Fingertip Sampling and Media-Fill Testing to assure your plan is compliant

Synopsis

It now early July 2023, and we who compound extemporaneously for our patients know that on November 1, 2022, the USP committee has finally published the two compounding chapters we have been waiting for, USP General Chapters Non-Sterile Preparations, and Sterile Preparations. They will become “official” and therefore enforceable on November 1, 2023. At this point we all have about 100 days to come into full compliance with these important documents.
