Hi Everyone,

WASHINGTON A coalition of nine pharmacy organizations representing more than 60,000 pharmacists today expressed grave concerns over proposed legislation that would restrict patients’ access to vital compounded prescription medications and create onerous, new requirements for both prescribers and pharmacists. The American Pharmacists Association, the National Community Pharmacists Association, the International Academy of Compounding Pharmacists, the American College of Apothecaries, the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists, the National Alliance of State Pharmacy Associations, the Massachusetts Pharmacists Association, the North Carolina Association of Pharmacists, and the Kansas Pharmacists Association expressed their concerns in a joint letter to expected sponsors of the Safe Drug Compounding Act of 2007, Senators Edward Kennedy (D-Mass.), Pat Roberts (R-Kan.) and Richard Burr (R-N.C.).
