HOW COMPOUNDING WORKS
Six checks, from source to shipment.
A clinician’s prescription guides each compounded medication. Here is how our pharmacy handles the work between the prescriber’s order and delivery.*
01 / 06
Qualified ingredients are selected
Ingredients are obtained from FDA-registered and inspected manufacturers through licensed, vetted wholesalers. Each shipment includes a Certificate of Analysis.
02 / 06
Incoming lots are inspected
Every lot is recorded and held apart from usable inventory until it is reviewed, then accepted or rejected before use.
03 / 06
A pharmacist reviews the materials
A pharmacist checks the Certificate of Analysis, confirms the ingredient is suitable for compounding, and verifies it against the master formula.
04 / 06
The prescription is compounded
Preparation follows applicable USP standards in controlled, continuously monitored environments, with checks built into each stage.
05 / 06
Testing takes place before release
Risk-based quality testing, including independent third-party laboratory testing, is completed before medication is released.
06 / 06
The order is labeled and tracked
Each prescription is labeled for the patient, shipped with storage instructions and pharmacist counseling, and traceable from source through lot.
Swipe through each checkpoint.
*These steps describe how our pharmacy, Potter's House Apothecary, LLC, prepares every Aluna Science prescription.
