Controlled substances
Prescriptions for controlled substances, such as testosterone (Schedule III), must meet DEA rules. We accept them electronically (EPCS) through Surescripts, from an EPCS-certified system, and some states require electronic prescribing. We can dispense controlled substances only to patients in states where we hold the right licenses.
Commercially available drugs
Federal law limits a 503A pharmacy from compounding drugs that are essentially copies of commercially available products. When a prescription is similar to a marketed product, note on it the clinical difference the compounded preparation makes for this patient, for example a different strength or the removal of an ingredient the patient can’t take.
Where we can serve your patients
We’re licensed in Kentucky and 15 more states. In Florida, manufactured products and non-sterile compounds only.
Common questions
Can I send controlled-substance prescriptions electronically?
