Course Format
2-day live practical lab (12 hours) where you will receive hands-on experience compounding 9 common non-sterile dosage form in a controlled laboratory environment, under the guidance of experts in the field.
Course Description
Complementing the Non-sterile Seminar, this training provides a great hands-on opportunity for compounders to develop their skills in the preparation of customized medications. Over 2 days, participants will prepare from start-to-finish, 9 common non-sterile dosage forms. Participants will learn and practice general compounding lab processes, compounding techniques, operating electromechanical equipment, managing a workstation, cleaning, documenting standard operating procedure logs, qualitative and quantitative verifications, beyond-use dating, and much more. The ultimate goal is to teach detailed procedures and techniques required to uphold compounding quality, as well as save time and money through optimized workflow, methods, and the implementation of innovative technologies. Leave this training with the skills and confidence needed for successful non-sterile compounding.
