Board of Pharmacy inspectors must notify pharmacists in charge when compounding facilities making nonsterile preparations violate United States Pharmacopeia General Chapter 795 requirements.

Follow-up inspections must occur between 30 and 90 days after initial violation; if uncorrected, inspectors must provide comprehensive instruction on remediation.

A third inspection finding continued non-compliance triggers mandatory education requirements for the pharmacist in charge.

Maximum penalty for failing to correct infractions is a single fine of $500, adjusted for inflation every two years on January 1 of even-numbered years.

Records related to investigation and remediation of compounding facility infractions are classified as confidential and exempt from public examination.
