I'm just wondering how much compounding do pharmacists do in retail? how about at hospitals? how do you guys feel about compounding?
I've worked as a tech at a mail order and didn't do any compounding at all. I'm also interning now at a retail chain and haven't seen it either. It kinda scares me because it seems like errors can be made easily when compounding.
(fyi: I just read this article, which caused me to think about this subject: http://www.ismp.org/Newsletters/acutecare/articles/20070906.asp )
