Virginia Bill 2312 Dealing With Compounding Introduced

On January 18, 2013,  VA Bill 2312, was introduced into legislation.  This bill includes new definitions and regulation of compounding. The bill would permit the Virginia Board of Pharmacy to revoke or suspend a pharmacy permit if the Board believes the actions of the pharmacy are of imminent threat to the citizens of the state. Language also is proposed that provides additional explanation to anticipatory compounding and defines compounding activities in "inordinate quantities" over anticipated patterns of prescribing and dispensing as manufacturing.
