"Small compounding pharmacies must halt selling copies immediately, larger facilities by March 19"
Because the 503B pharmacies are envisioned as compounding beforehand to meet a need. The 503As are only supposed to compound for specific patients. Strictly speaking, it's not size that counts, but the provision that of law that authorizes the compounding that makes a difference.Man, things gonna get interesting.
(Why do you get an extension if you are a bigger company? If anything it ought to be the reverse, a bigger business is more likely to weather a loss in revenue.)
I know many compounding pharmacies plan to continue compounding. The FDA's announcement and the court ruling as to it affect only affect one exception to the ban on compounding of patented medications. There are many others. See Food Drug & Cosmetic Act §§ 503A (21 U.S.C. § 353a), 503B (21 U.S.C. § 353b). Despite me being a lawyer, this is far outside my area of expertise. But I have heard from lawyers from compounding pharmacies who say the plan on continuing to compound. I make no predictions about how this will all turn out. I'm not super interested in this topic right now simply because I believe the folks using compounding pharmacies ought to switch to grey."Small compounding pharmacies must halt selling copies immediately, larger facilities by March 19"
I appreciate a lawyer’s perspective.I know many compounding pharmacies plan to continue compounding.

Wait that's a thing? I thought @DwightTheDelight was joking.I appreciate a lawyer’s perspective.
I don’t know if they everyone should be switching. The GLP1 Facebook groups prove that some people need a lot of hand holding. The amount of people who accidentally inject their thumb is incredible. Idk even know how that would happen
This forum is going to get very Interesting in the future I predict. Probably a lot more interesting than just us parrot owners in here with a weird post or two.I know many compounding pharmacies plan to continue compounding.

I've pricked my thumb when re-capping the pen needles. They get bent and shoot out the side of the top. Oops.Wait that's a thing? I thought @DwightTheDelight was joking.
Oh come ON. Even you?!I've pricked my thumb when re-capping the pen needles. They get bent and shoot out the side of the top. Oops.
Not sure how someone would managed to inject their thumb, though...
To be fair, I'm paying much less attention after I've finished the injection! Just recapping stuff, twisting it off the top of the pen, tossing it in the sharps container.Oh come ON. Even you?!
I suspect you earned unreliable narrator, there's no way.
I'm still gonna give you side eye. At least until I do it myself, then I promise to DM you and apologize.To be fair, I'm paying much less attention after I've finished the injection! Just recapping stuff, twisting it off the top of the pen, tossing it in the sharps container.
i.... have done this more times than i'd like to admit. i just stop paying attention once the important part of injecting myself is done.I've pricked my thumb when re-capping the pen needles. They get bent and shoot out the side of the top. Oops.

people think i'm incompetent.Oh come ON. Even you?!

If people call me incompetent, I consider that a compliment since it's so much better than what they usually call me.people think i'm incompetent.
I think side eye is the problem, or depth perception. I've got wonky vision and have stuck myself replacing syringe caps as well (the needle will stick right through the orange cap). Hitting the plunger at the same time is beyond me. I have a good time sewing my hand to all my mending and hemming projects. 🪡I'm still gonna give you side eye.

It's probably an anxiety thing. I'm so afraid of sticking myself that I'm extra careful.I think side eye is the problem, or depth perception.

Yeah, that doesn't work for me. Anxiety makes my hands tremor turning a singular syringe into a micro needler. 🫨It's probably an anxiety thing. I'm so afraid of sticking myself that I'm extra careful.
It doesn't really hurt at all so I'm not being particularly careful. And what am I gonna do, infect myself with my own bodily fluids?It's probably an anxiety thing. I'm so afraid of sticking myself that I'm extra careful.
Recapping has jabbed me too. I gave blood this week and one of the screening questions is "have you had an accidental needle stick"....well..It doesn't really hurt at all so I'm not being particularly careful. And what am I gonna do, infect myself with my own bodily fluids?
Thumb injector here ! Racing out the door late for work, removed the cap, wasn't looking and thought the pen was the correct direction pressing on my thigh and boop --- holy hell the pain 😭😳😭 !! Straight to the thumb.It's probably an anxiety thing. I'm so afraid of sticking myself that I'm extra careful.
Does this include the tirz with added this and that I wonder ?Because the 503B pharmacies are envisioned as compounding beforehand to meet a need. The 503As are only supposed to compound for specific patients. Strictly speaking, it's not size that counts, but the provision that of law that authorizes the compounding that makes a difference.
Happened to me once with a cheap insulin syringe. Putting the cap back on, the needle came through the cap and nicked my thumb.It's probably an anxiety thing. I'm so afraid of sticking myself that I'm extra careful.
The 503B pharmacies clearly cannot get around compounding restrictions simply by adding something for a specific patient. The 503A pharmacies may do so. Section 503A bars them generally from compounding what is "essentially a copy of a commercially available drug product" except when done irregularly and only manufactured in small amounts.Does this include the tirz with added this and that I wonder ?
