In the wake of outbreaks nationwide linking tainted medications to compounding pharmacies, OK Compounding, a leading compounding pharmacy in Oklahoma, has launched a campaign to demonstrate the extreme care it takes in providing safe medications and innovative compounding techniques.
Jocelyn Anstine, Chief Pharmacist of OK Compounding, says she believes that it is imperative for the public to know how safe compounding truly is and for professionals to highlight their superior standards when it comes to better serving their patients.
“Modern pharmacy compounding is safe and absolutely critical,” said Anstine. “I believe there are a few bad apples out there, but they are the rare exceptions. Those of us who truly care have the responsibility of highlighting our safe ingredients and equipment, as well as our practice of exceeding industry standards.”
Oklahoma has some of the strictest laws in the nation when it comes to compounding and is one of three states requiring adherence to guidelines written by the U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention, a group that develops medical purity standards used around the world. Anstine says OK Compounding follows these standards to a tee and backs it up with a commitment to broad based health and safety procedures, along with an investment in equipment that makes compounding an absolutely safe process for customers.
