A Review of Laws Enforced by the FDA
A Review of Laws Enforced by the FDA
The Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) authority to approve new drugs has been front and center lately. Take this course to learn why the FDA is one of the most trusted, and at the same time most controversial, federal agencies; and how your role on the pharmacy team is an important part of keeping patients safe from harm.
Upon successful completion of this knowledge-based CPE course, pharmacy technicians should be able to:
1. Discuss the FDA’s regulatory authority for the enforcement of legal standards related to new drug approval, the misbranding of drugs, and the adulteration of drugs.
2. Describe the federal requirements for extemporaneous compounding by pharmacies, as distinct from pharmaceutical manufacturing.
3. Identify the requirements for approval and therapeutic equivalency of generic drug products.
