ForwardUSP <797> BEST PRACTICES – IT’S NOT JUST SOPs (PART 2): FROM CLEANING TO PACKAGING, HANDLING, STABILITY, DOCUMENTATION, & QUALITY ASSURANCE/CONTROL
AN APC WEBINAR POWERED BY LP3 NETWORK
The webinar will be live on October 5th, 2023 at 2:00pm Eastern Daylight Time (EDT).
Overview
In a survey of best practices in over 600 compounders, only little more than half indicated to define and always follow standard operating procedures (SOPs) during sterile compounding processes (ISMP, 2020). While SOPs are crucial to ensuring best practices in sterile compounding, they are often times not regularly reviewed and updated to reflect areas experiencing significant change or new regulations to remain compliant with USP Chapter <797>.
This activity aims to highlight key areas of sterile compounding practices that are important to recognize as best practices to implement in your SOPs in order to remain compliant with USP <797>. In Part 2 of this 2-Part series, Amy Summers, PharmD, BCSCP, explores best practices in cleaning packaging, handling, stability characteristics, & quality assurance / control measures for sterile compounding.
