The Standard Nobody
Else Is Setting.
We built the most rigorous pharmacy evaluation framework in the compounding industry because practitioners deserve to know exactly what they're recommending.
The 5 Pillars
Accreditation
We cross-reference every pharmacy against the primary accreditation bodies that set the standard for compounding quality in the United States.
PCAB Accreditation
Highest weight in our scoring. Requires on-site inspection by independent surveyors, demonstrated USP compliance, and ongoing quality monitoring. Administered by ACHC.
FDA 503B Registration
Federal registration as an outsourcing facility. Subject to CGMP standards, FDA inspection, and reporting requirements. We also track 483 observations and enforcement actions.
NABP CPPA
Compounding Pharmacy Accreditation from the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy. Secondary accreditation signal that validates multi-state operational standards.
State Board License
Baseline requirement. We verify active license status and check for unresolved complaints, disciplinary actions, or sanctions with the issuing state board of pharmacy.
Compliance
Regulatory compliance is non-negotiable. We evaluate adherence to the USP chapters that govern sterile and hazardous drug compounding.
USP <797> Sterile Compounding
Standards for sterile preparation, including personnel training, environmental controls, quality assurance procedures, and beyond-use dating.
USP <800> Hazardous Drug Handling
Requirements for receipt, storage, compounding, dispensing, and disposal of hazardous drugs to protect workers, patients, and the environment.
Cleanroom Classification
ISO-classified cleanroom documentation, including air quality monitoring, pressure differentials, and particulate counts.
Environmental Monitoring
Ongoing viable and non-viable air sampling, surface monitoring, and personnel glove fingertip testing programs.
Testing
Independent testing is the strongest signal of product quality. We verify what testing protocols each pharmacy follows and whether results are available to practitioners.
Third-Party Potency & Sterility
Independent laboratory verification of active ingredient concentration and sterility assurance. The gold standard for compounded injectables.
Certificate of Analysis (COA)
Per-batch COA availability documenting potency, sterility, endotoxin levels, and particulate matter. We note whether COAs are proactively provided or available on request.
Raw Material Sourcing
API and excipient sourcing from FDA-registered suppliers with documented chain of custody and supplier qualification programs.
Endotoxin & Particulate Testing
LAL (Limulus Amebocyte Lysate) testing for bacterial endotoxins and USP <788> particulate matter testing for all injectable formulations.
Formulary
Practitioners need to know what compounds are available, in what forms, and whether custom formulations are possible.
Peptide Compound Availability
Documented availability of specific peptide compounds including semaglutide, tirzepatide, BPC-157, sermorelin, CJC-1295/ipamorelin, and others.
Dose Form Variety
Range of available preparations: injectable (subcutaneous, intramuscular, IV), oral capsules, sublingual, nasal spray, topical, and troches.
Custom Formulation Capability
Ability to compound patient-specific formulations based on practitioner prescriptions, including custom concentrations and combination preparations.
Reviews
Practitioner experience is the final verification layer. We collect structured feedback from clinicians who have direct ordering experience.
Verified Practitioner Reviews
Only reviews from verified healthcare practitioners (MD, DO, NP, PA) with confirmed prescribing relationships. No patient reviews, no anonymous submissions.
Review Source Validation
NPI verification, practice confirmation, and cross-referencing against state license databases to ensure reviewer authenticity.
Ongoing Monitoring
Continuous monitoring for FDA warning letters, state board actions, recall notices, and significant changes in accreditation status that may affect a pharmacy's listing.
Quality Score Explained
Every pharmacy receives a composite quality score based on verifiable accreditation data. Scores are calculated automatically from public sources. No pharmacy can pay to increase their score.
Score Tiers
PA Verified Elite
Highest accreditation density. Multi-source verified across federal, state, and independent bodies.
PA Verified
Strong accreditation profile with multiple verification sources.
PA Listed
Single accreditation source verified. Additional verification recommended.
Unverified
Insufficient accreditation data for scoring. Not necessarily a quality indicator.
What We Don't Do
We don't accept payment for ratings or score placement.
We don't remove negative information, FDA actions, or enforcement history.
We don't guarantee any pharmacy's current operational status.
We don't provide medical advice, recommend specific pharmacies for specific conditions, or endorse any pharmacy's products.
We don't allow pharmacies to edit their accreditation data. All data comes from primary sources.
