Overview / Abstract
This one hour webinar is an in-depth presentation on federal and state legislative and regulatory issues that are affecting compounders today.

• Define “bulk ingredients” and the difference between “FDA-approved” products.
• Define “office use” and describe how compounding for office use differs from wholesaling.
