The Return to Personalized Medicine

While the compounding pharmacy has been around for centuries, during the industrialization age, medicines became manufactured and thus more standardized.
However, medicine is not always one-size-fits-all. Compounding pharmacies create personalized medications by working closely with healthcare providers, often addressing issues not adequately covered by traditional pharmaceutical options.

Are Compounding Pharmacies High-Quality?

Dr. Hyman asks Shaun about the quality of compounding pharmacies. After a dangerous contamination of testosterone cypionate that resulted in several fatalities, what is being done to ensure the quality of compounded medications?

Shaun explains the rigorous regulation by state boards of pharmacy and the FDA, and the strict quality control measures that outsourcing facilities must adhere to. The Drug Quality Security Act has further enhanced the regulatory framework for compounding, particularly for sterile products.

The Future of Compounding

Dr. Hyman and Shaun discuss how clinical care can be transformed by the advent of innovations in the compounding industry. From increased forms of administration to insightful research and advanced technologies, compounding can play a pivotal role in the progression of patient care.
