2 NABP Model State Pharmacy Act & Model Rules Appendix B Good Compounding Practices Applicable to State Licensed Pharmacies The following Good Compounding Practices (GCPs) are meant to apply only to the compounding of drugs by State-licensed pharmacies. Subpart A. General Provisions and Definitions The procedures contained herein are considered to be the minimum current Good Compounding Practices for the preparation of drug products by State-licensed pharmacies for dispensing and/or administration to humans or animals. Compounding pharmacists and pharmacies shall practice in accordance with these Good Compounding Practices, the board s rules for sterile pharmaceuticals, and the current United States Pharmacopeia-National Formulary (USP-NF) chapters on compounding and sterile product preparation. 2
3 Compounding means the preparation of components into a drug product (1) as the result of a practitioner s prescription drug order based on the practitioner/patient/pharmacist relationship in the course of professional practice, or (2) for the purpose of, or as an incident to, research, teaching, or chemical analysis and not for sale or dispensing. Compounding includes the preparation of limited amounts of drugs or devices in anticipation of receiving prescription drug orders based on routine, regularly observed prescribing patterns. Manufacturing means the production, preparation, propagation, conversion, or processing of a drug or device, either directly or indirectly, by extraction from substances of natural origin or independently by means of chemical or biological synthesis. Manufacturing includes the packaging or repackaging of a drug or device or the labeling or relabeling of the container of a drug or device for resale by pharmacies, practitioners, or other persons. 3
4 NABP Good Compounding Practices Applicable to State Licensed Pharmacies 1. Based on the existence of a pharmacist/patient/practitioner relationship and the presentation of a valid prescription drug order or medical order, pharmacists may compound, in reasonable and justified quantities, drug products that are commercially available in the marketplace when they are different from the FDA-approved product and there is a specific, documented medical need for this variation for a particular patient. 2. Pharmacists shall receive, store, or use drug substances for compounding that are components of FDA-approved drugs and that have been made in an FDA-registered facility. If this requirement cannot be met, pharmacists shall procure a certificate of analysis for each lot purchased. Pharmacists shall also receive, store, or use drug components in compounding prescriptions that meet official compendia requirements. 3. The pharmacist shall notify patients if they may be affected by a product found to have a defect or an out-of-specification result. 4
5 4. Compounding includes the preparation of drugs or devices in anticipation of receiving prescription drug orders or medical orders based on routine, regularly observed prescribing patterns. 5. Pharmacists may compound drugs in limited quantities, prior to receiving a valid prescription drug order or medical order based on a history of receiving valid prescription drug orders or medical orders that have been generated solely within an established pharmacist/patient/practitioner relationship, and provided that they maintain the prescriptions on file for all such products compounded at the pharmacy (as required by state and federal law). 6. The compounding of inordinate amounts of drugs in anticipation of receiving prescriptions without any historical basis is considered manufacturing. 5
6 7. A pharmacist may not compound a drug that appears on the FDA list of drugs withdrawn or removed from the market for safety reasons or on the FDA list of drug products that present demonstrable difficulties in compounding unless approved by the board. 8. Pharmacists shall not offer compounded drug products to other State-licensed persons or commercial entities for subsequent resale, except in the course of professional practice for a practitioner to administer to an individual patient, in limited quantities. 9. Compounding pharmacies/pharmacists may advertise or otherwise promote the fact that they provide prescription compounding services, in accordance with State law, as well as applicable federal laws. 10. Pharmacists engaged in the compounding of drugs shall operate in conformance with applicable state law regulating the practice of pharmacy. 6

8 Differentiating Manufacturing From Compounding 1. Is there a valid prescription? 2. Is there a valid pharmacist-prescriber-patient relationship? 3. Is a reasonable amount of drug product being prepared? 4. If drugs are prepared in anticipation of prescriptions, is it based on regularly observed prescribing patterns? 5. Are inordinate amounts of drugs being prepared without any historical basis? 6. Are drugs being prepared for specific patients? 7. Are drugs being provided to practitioners for office use? 8. Are drugs being prepared for resale to other pharmacies, prescribing practitioners, or others? 9. Is there a specific medical need for preparing a commercially available product? 10. Are commercially available products being prepared for purely economic reasons? 11. Are drugs being shipped across state lines to multiple states? 12. What type of advertising and promotion is done? 8
9 State Require ments for Sterile Prepara 9
10 Section 1. Purpose and Scope. NABP MODEL RULES FOR STERILE PHARMACEUTICALS The purpose of this section is to ensure positive patient outcomes through the provision of standards for (1) pharmacist care; (2) the preparation, labeling, and distribution of sterile pharmaceuticals by pharmacies; and (3) product quality and characteristics. These standards are intended to apply to all sterile pharmaceuticals, notwithstanding the location of the patient (e.g., home, hospital, nursing home, hospice, doctor s office). All compounding pharmacies and pharmacists shall practice in accordance with these rules, the board s good compounding practices applicable to state licensed pharmacies, and the current United States Pharmacopeia-National Formulary (USP-NF) chapters on compounding and sterile pharmaceutical preparations. 10
11 NABP MODEL RULES FOR STERILE PHARMACEUTICALS, CONTINUED Section 2. Definitions Section 3. Policy and Procedure Manual* Section 4. Physical Requirements Section 5. Records and Reports * Section 6. Delivery Service Section 7. Disposal of Cytotoxic and/or Hazardous Wastes Section 8. Emergency Kit Section 9. Cytotoxic Drugs Section 10. Patient Education and Training Section 11. Quality Assurance/Compounding and Preparation of Sterile Pharmaceuticals* Section 12. Pharmacist Care Outcomes * Frequently noted on inspections as areas of deficiencies. 11
12 Section 11. Quality Assurance/Compounding and Preparation of Sterile Pharmaceuticals. There shall be a documented, ongoing quality assurance control program that monitors personnel performance, component verification and usage, disinfection, sterilization, equipment, and facilities that are appropriate to the risk level of the sterile pharmaceutical(s) being prepared. Appropriate samples of finished products shall be examined to ensure that the pharmacy is capable of consistently preparing sterile pharmaceuticals meeting specifications. (c) If bulk compounding of sterile solutions is performed using chemicals that initially are nonsterile, extensive end-product microbial testing must be documented prior to the release of the product from quarantine. This process must include appropriate tests for particulate matter, pyrogens, and microbes. 12
13 NABP Model Rules Comments Section 2(n). Comment. According to the USP Chapter 797 (27 th revision of the USP), the risk levels of operations should guide the health care professional in determining the appropriate procedures necessary to ensure a safe compounding process. Correspondingly, based upon the risk level, health care professionals are responsible for determining the procedural and environmental quality practices and attributes that are necessary for the risk level associated with the sterile pharmaceutical. Boards may consider referencing USP Chapter 797; the revised version went into effect June 1, 2008, after consideration of recommendations received from USP internal expert committees and the professional community. 13
