Pharmacies and other dispensers with more than 26 pharmacist and technician employees may need to act immediately to be in compliance with the Nov. 27 end of a phased exemption granted by the FDA in 2024. Pharmacies that are not able to claim the FDA’s small dispenser exemption to a limited part of the law, but still need extra time to complete data connections with their wholesalers or other immediate trading partners, need to act now and apply for an exemption.
Be sure to visit the DSCSA compliance solution vendors, including DSCSA360 in the exhibit hall at the NCPA annual convention next week.
