    Your days are numbered.........

    House lawmakers are introducing a bill that would give drug regulators more authority over compounding facilities.

    The Compounding Clarity Act, introduced on Thursday by Reps. Gene Green (D-Texas), Morgan Griffith (R-Va.) and Diana DeGette (D-Colo.), would give the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) power to oversee major drug manufacturing facilities.

    The legislation comes nearly a year after an outbreak of fungal meningitis, during which 64 people were killed. Those deaths have been blamed on contaminated drugs from a Massachusetts facility.

    “For the last several weeks, a bipartisan and bicameral group of lawmakers have been meeting to make sure we never relive the tragedy of the 2012 fungal meningitis outbreak that originated in a compounding pharmacy in Massachusetts,” Green said in a statement.

    Griffith added that the bill would “prevent another [New England Compounding Center]-type outbreak from occurring and ensuring the quality and safety of all compounded drugs in the country.”

    The legislation expands the authority of the FDA to oversee large compounding pharmacies, which alter strength, dosage and ingredients of drugs to make customized batches of medication. Large facilities like the one at the root of the 2012 outbreak are largely exempt from FDA oversight under current law.

    The bill also calls for a new notification system to make sure that the FDA acts on complaints it receives from state pharmacy boards.

    Only large compounding pharmacies would be subject to the new restrictions, not traditional facilities.

    The National Community Pharmacists Association applauded the legislation.

    In a letter to the heads of the Energy and Commerce Committee asking them to support the legislation, the pharmacist association’s chief executive wrote that the bill “rightfully maintains state Boards of Pharmacy oversight of compounding pharmacies while strengthening badly needed two-way communications between the FDA and state Boards of Pharmacy.”

    You're a dumb ass if you believe everything someone tells you about selling compounds. Do your own research - you've obviously been misinformed.

    If a phx is buying from the PCCA the FDA regulates the PCCA. Do your
    Homework.

    I work for a PCCA affiliated compounding pharmacy, which is uncommon for many of the fly by night companies out there. They have been treating me well, so I can't complain. I doubt that I'll be doing selling compounds in five years, but the money is great and my physicians really love the products. If you have great relationships, you'd probably do well. It seems that the more rural areas (like where I cover) get very few compounding reps in primary care offices, but I see more of them in the pain management and podiatry offices. Most of these reps just come in from the bigger cities and drop pads off and leave. I'm fortunate that I'm a local rep and can easily follow up, which they like. From what I hear, the bigger cities are slammed with reps, but the reps with the best relationships really do well and the rest do not. Most of the primary care physicians are "new" to compounding, when I speak to them in my rural territory, so I'm very fortunate. Some physicians are eager to try something new and some are not. It's the nature of the beast. I believe there are 50+ reps that work for our pharmacy. If you are interested, please drop me an email. bwine490atyahoo.com.
