Abstract:  Sterile compounding demands precision, consistency, and an unwavering commitment to safety. For pharmacists and technicians working with Compounded Sterile Products (CSPs), USP General Chapter <797> is a familiar reference point. Yet each review often reveals new considerations, making it essential to revisit the standards regularly — especially now that the latest updates are fully in effect. With inspections always on the horizon, this is the ideal time to ensure your Primary Engineering Controls (PECs) and Containment Primary Engineering Controls (C-PECs) meet both regulatory expectations and best practice standards.
