I A C PMake plans NOW to attend this year's Compounders on Capitol Hill (CCH)! Join your colleagues as we

work to ensure that patients continue to have access to the customized medications they need.

Head to the Hill with us in June as we go to D.C. to speak with our Senator and Congressional

representatives about several issues that directly affect patients. This year, it’s vital that we address our

concerns with the Drug Quality and Security Act (DQSA) with our respective representation to ensure

access to pharmacy compounding continues! It's up to our IACP Membership to ensure that patients

and practitioners continue to have access to compounded medications prepared by licensed pharmacists

who are following the necessary guidelines and who are helping patients and

practitioners with personalized medication solutions each and every day. There

currently are several issues with DQSA that we believe could detrimentally affect

patients’ access to the compounded medications they need. We are working closely

with our Hill representation, federal regulatory agencies, and state boards of

pharmacy to ensure that DQSA is enacted as it was intended by Congress.

IACP President Dale Coker, RPh, FIACP
