What’s in it

This bill relates to the investigation and remediation of infractions at compounding facilities (facility) engaging in the compounding of nonsterile preparations. The bill requires an inspector employed by the board of pharmacy (board) who discovers during the course of an inspection that a facility engaging in the compounding of nonsterile preparations is out of compliance with the United States pharmacopeia general chapter 795 to notify the pharmacist in charge of the infraction. If an inspector discovers at a subsequent inspection that the infraction has not been corrected, the bill requires the inspector to provide comprehensive instruction regarding the infraction and the correction of the infraction to the pharmacist in charge.
