Another Compounding Bill Introduced; the Verifying Authority and Legality in Drug Compounding Act Was Introduced in the House Today by Rep. Ed Markey


Rep. Ed Markey (D-Mass.), who doesn't sit on the Energy and Commerce Committee but whose district encompasses the NECC, introduced legislation Thursday to give the FDA what it has been asking for.
The Verifying Authority and Legality in Drug Compounding Act would make the FDA the sole regulatory authority over compounders that produce sterile products wceithout or in advance of a prescription and ship it across state lines -- much like the Senate bill does.
