This bill died with 2023-2024 Regular Session. It reached “To Executive” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

Vetoed by Governor Gavin Newsom (Democratic) on January 29, 2024.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

Existing law, the Pharmacy Law, requires the California State Board of Pharmacy to license and regulate the practice of pharmacy by pharmacists and pharmacy corporations in this state. Existing law prohibits a pharmacy from compounding sterile drug products unless the pharmacy has obtained a sterile compounding pharmacy license from the board. Existing law requires the compounding of drug preparations by a pharmacy for furnishing, distribution, or use to be consistent with standards established in the pharmacy compounding chapters of the current version of the United States Pharmacopeia-National Formulary, including relevant testing and quality assurance. Existing law authorizes the board to adopt regulations to impose additional standards for compounding drug preparations. This bill would, notwithstanding those provisions, specify that compounding does not include reconstitution of a drug pursuant to a manufacturer's directions, the sole act of tablet splitting or crushing, capsule opening, or the addition of a flavoring agent to enhance palatability. The bill would require a pharmacy to retain documentation that a flavoring agent was added to a prescription and to make that documentation available to the board or its agent upon request.
