The College is currently seeking feedback on the Model Standards for Pharmacy Compounding of Non-Sterile Preparations developed by the National Association of Pharmacy Regulatory Authorities (NAPRA).
These
draft standards have been developed to provide those who compound
non-sterile preparations with the standards necessary to evaluate
practice, develop procedures, and implement quality control measures,
thereby improving quality and safety for both staff and patients. Along
with other provincial pharmacy regulators, OCP will compile the views of
members and submit feedback to NAPRA.
NAPRA
will review the submissions of pharmacy regulators across the country
and determine what changes to make to these draft standards, if any.
Once NAPRA finalizes the standards, OCP council will consider the timing
of their implementation.
Please provide your feedback on this open consultation. The feedback deadline is November 17, 2016.
