The Board conducted a review of several complaint cases involving pharmacy practice, including medication temperature excursions and failure to report criminal charges. Decisions were made regarding a consent agreement for voluntary surrender and multiple dismissals for complaint cases where corrective actions were taken by pharmacies or insufficient evidence of violations was found. The Board also reviewed a case regarding a pharmacist's failure to report a criminal charge and considered the imposition of a non-disciplinary civil penalty.

Arizona Board of Pharmacy Rule Writing Taskforce Meeting
The taskforce discussed proposed changes to compounding rules, including addressing errors in references to adulterated drugs. Key discussion points included the need for clarification on compounding for diagnostic and sensitivity testing, and the challenges faced by health systems in outpatient settings such as ambulatory surgery centers and infusion clinics. The taskforce considered whether these outpatient locations require a specific permit that allows hospital-like pharmacy practices, such as specific labeling and the use of automated dispensing machines, without being restricted by retail pharmacy regulations.
