Questions and answers

What is an API?

An active pharmaceutical ingredient, also called a bulk drug substance, is the substance intended to become the active part of a finished drug. It is sold by weight to businesses that make finished products.

What is the difference between 503A and 503B?

A 503A pharmacy compounds for an identified patient on a prescription, under a state pharmacy license. A 503B outsourcing facility registers with FDA, follows cGMP and can compound sterile drugs without patient-specific prescriptions. Each has its own rules on which bulk substances it may use.

What does a 503A pharmacy need from an API supplier?

Three things under federal law. The supplier must be an FDA-registered establishment. Each lot must come with a valid certificate of analysis. The substance must have a USP or NF monograph, be a component of an FDA-approved drug, or be on FDA's 503A bulks list.

Which peptides can pharmacies compound?

A peptide can be compounded if it has a USP or NF monograph, is a component of an FDA-approved drug, or is on FDA's 503A bulks list. [Dated status sentence to be supplied.] FDA's own list is the authority.
