NACDS submitted comments to the Board of Pharmacy urging regulators to reconsider plans to require compliance with USP Ch. <800> by July 1, 2018, ahead of the USP’s December 1, 2019 effective date. At its December meeting, the Board heeded the concerns raised by NACDS and others in the pharmacy community about early implementation and opted to delay compliance until December 2019.
