Abstract
Quality control and quality assurance are vital components for successful pharmaceutical compounding. A quality program consists of proper procedures, proper documentation, proper training, and proper testing, both analytical (physical and chemical) and microbiological. Each sterile and nonsterile dosage form has a number of tests that are appropriate and some that can be easily done. Some analytical tests can be conducted in-house and some may require outsourcing. All aspects of the quality program must be documented as well as periodically reviewed and updated. A quality program is constantly being changed and improved as new technology, equipment, and procedures are implemented in the facility. The end result of a quality program should be properly compounded preparations that are safe and effective for patients.
