(FL state allows but TX does NOT allow) - Both, by 9/24/2020. Federal level is listed above. FDA finalized new rules on importation on Sep 24, 2020, which permit states to serve as sponsors to import drug from Canada under certain conditions. A few states (including FL NOT TX) have passed laws to allow drug importation from Canada, but as of the date of publication of this book, no state plan has been approved by HHS.

This outbreak resulted in the death of over 60 patients and over 750 cases of injection. — Outsourcing facilities, often referred to as *503B facilities*, are permitted to compound sterile products *without receiving patient-specific prescriptions or medication orders*. They are primarily regulated by FDA and are subject to *FDA's current GMP* (cGMPs). (Basically they are bulk producing Sterile Compounding Facilities) — Compounding pharmacy that is NOT contracted w/ FDA as an "outsourcing facility" are often referred as [*503A facilities or 503A pharmacy*] and may *ONLY compound products pursuant to an individual Rx or medication order*. —> 503A facilities are permitted to limited anticipatory compounding, are primarily regulated by the states, and are subject to "*USP chapter 797 quality standards*" for sterile compounding. **Outsourcing facilities are NOT except from good manufacturing practices** — 503A=USP797 (sterile compounding) and GMP (503A is but more for USP797 with state level) 503B=cGMP (with federal level)
