I never seen a comment posted on this blog - am I missing something? on Reminder: Please remember to read the comments being made on the blog: doctors and those in the know are starting to speak out and expose a number of harmful, dangerous, illegal things going on in the compounded drug world. We just need more to come forward and take a stand.

They'll just open under a different name, at a different location down the street. There is too much money to be made by "hot batching" vitamin supplements with prescription drugs (some of which are not approved for use in humans because they are associated with heart attacks, liver damage, death, etc.). For example, one website, www.uspeptides.com, puts a disclaimer "For research purposes only. Not for human consumption", which is eerily similar to the disclaimer that illegal synthetic marijuana (K2, Spice) and synthetic quaaludes (Bath Salts) used to evade the law (and get people who wanted to get high, get really, really sick). That outfit touts peptide hormone drugs such as CJC-1295 as alternatives to Human Growth Hormone, but doesn't tell you that CJC-1295 was never approved as a human drug because it caused heart attacks. I am not sure how big the market is for buying these drugs for "research use", when no one is researching a drug that has been shown to cause heart on Federal judge approves consent decree with New York dietary supplement maker

Ironically, doctors haven't pushed for laws to limit their liability if they use an FDA-approved "outsourcing facility" to provide compounded medications for administration. (Currently, if a doctor uses an FDA approved drug, the doctor/clinic is not liable should the drug be contaminated/adulterated/misbranded, etc.) The failure to have such liability protections makes all physicians the "deep pocket" in such lawsuits as the compounding pharmacy is either (1) raided of funds and now bankrupt; or (2) bankrupt because there are just too many claims and not enough "malpractice coverage" to cover the damages (or having a malpractice carrier refuse coverage because the pharmacy was breaking the law by manufacturing when it only had a license to do patient-specific compounding). So, the doctors in these cases are going to lose big. They bought illegal drugs from a pharmacy who illegally supplied them. on Artis, et al v. N.E. Compounding Pharmacy, Inc, et al

Dow chemical. Not exactly good company to be in. on Third Question of the Day June 25, 2014 Is there any other time in American History where a group similar to compounding pharmacists have caused harm and death, been so politically powerful, mislead the public, and profited so greatly? If so, when and how?

The sooner that insurance companies stop reimbursing compounding pharmacies (and their sales reps) based on grossly inflated "Average Wholesale Price" lists that have nothing to do with the average wholesale price pharmacies pay to buy the raw active ingredients in these pain creams, the better. Reimbursement should be based upon the ACTUAL cost for providing services, or the ACTUAL value of the services provided. These pain creams are dispensed in buckets to patients, much of it not being used because it isn't as effective as touted. Why it had to take 5-10 years before insurance companies realized and reacted to being raped by rogue pharmacies abusing the system, is beyond me. on Here is a prediction on cafepharma board about sales reps and transdermal creams....
