Be Ready for Non-Sterile Compounding Changes With USP 795 Updates

NOTICE (September 2019): After this article was published, USP postponed the official dates of the revised <795> and <797> chapters until further notice. Please see their notice here.

You'll see big changes with NON-sterile compounding...due to updated USP <795> standards that go into effect on December 1, 2019.

This will affect many preps...from "magic mouthwash," to "butt paste," to suspensions or solutions made from liquids or pills.

But it won't apply to reconstitution or repackaging...such as pulling oral liquids into syringes.
