Legal Update: How New Regulations Affect Your Practice

Description

It seems like regulatory changes occur every week. Some are minor, but others drastically change how we practice. How can you ensure you’ve made the right changes to comply with new and revised USP chapters? This session has you covered. Experts will address differences between the sterile preparation of radioactive and nonradioactive drugs, discuss strategies to ensure compliance, and look at new technologies and proposed changes in sterility and endotoxin testing.
