FAQ's

503A compounding pharmacies can prepare a wide range of medications, including sterile and non-sterile formulations, customized dosages, and various delivery forms such as creams, injections, capsules, and more. They often cater to patients with specific medication needs, allergies, or sensitivities.

Compounded medications may or may not be covered by insurance plans. Coverage depends on the individual insurance policy and the specific compounded medication. Patients should consult their insurance providers to determine coverage.

Alliance for Pharmacy Compounding, National Library of Medicine, and United States Government Accountability Office

The key difference lies in regulatory oversight. 503A compounding pharmacies operate under state pharmacy boards regulations and can compound customized medications for individual patient prescriptions. In contrast, 503B outsourcing facilities are subject to more stringent federal regulations by the FDA, allowing them to produce larger quantities of compounded medications without patient-specific prescriptions for healthcare facilities.
