Compounding is in jeopardy...
URGENT UPDATE: Proponents of bill S.959 are pushing for a vote this week.
The Senate is trying to pass a bill that would
heavily affect compounding and access to compounded medications for patients. Please share this information...
Legislation has been proposed that could create an environment that
would unduly restrict access to personalized (also known as compounded)
medications, even when they provide the best treatment options for
patients, as determined by their physicians. You can make a difference
if you act right now and oppose Senate bill S.959. Legislators need to
hear from those who would be affected by any policy or law that does not
reflect the importance of personalized medicine.

8/7/13 update: Even though proponents of Senate Bill 959 (legislation relating to
compounding) pushed for considerations of the legislation this week, the
bill has been delayed and will be voted on sometime after Labor Day.
Congress is out of session until September 9.
