Some Frequently Asked Questions
A 503A compounding pharmacy creates patient-specific medications prescribed by a physician, rather than dispensing mass-produced drugs. Unlike retail pharmacies, 503A operations focus on sterile compounding, aseptic technique, and USP <797>/<800> compliance.
USP <797> sets the requirements for sterile compounding environments, while USP <800> addresses the safe handling of hazardous drugs. Hospital pharmacies and compounding labs must meet these to ensure sterility and staff safety.
Certification typically occurs every six months or after major maintenance. Environmental monitoring should be ongoing, tracking viable and nonviable particles to maintain compliance with USP <797>.
Frequent issues include inadequate documentation, poor airflow certification, lack of personnel training, and improper cleaning procedures.
Decisions often depend on staffing, cost, and compliance risk. Outsourcing is increasing as health systems seek consistency, scalability, and validated sterility assurance.
Automation, gravimetric verification, and real-time digital logging are transforming compounding accuracy, reducing waste, and improving traceability.
