<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> In the USA, the FDA is proposing to limit interstate shipment of compounded prescription medications, I learned on another list. I was afraid/hoped that this report was a hoax, but it seems to be real. I turned up these two websites on the issue (FDA - Docket No. 98N-1265): http://www.fda.gov/cder/pharmcomp/default.htm http://www.gpo.ucop.edu/catalog/register/thu/fr21ja99.97.txt My first thought was how this might affect those of us who need to get especially compounded gf prescriptions from places like Stokes Pharmacy in New Jersey. According to the people who reported this FDA proposal, the public has until March 22, 1999 to comment. Mail comments to: Dockets Management Branch (HFA-305) Docket No. 98N-1265 Food and Drug Administration 5600 Fishers Lane Rockville, MD 02857 I'll be happy to forward the 2 reports on the matter to those who are interested. If anybody knows more about this, please comment. Good luck and good health! Bobbi in Baltimore MD USA
