The Williamsburg Drug Company Achieves PCAB Accreditation
The Williamsburg Drug Company recently announced its achievement of Pharmacy Compounding Accreditation Board (PCAB) accreditation for May 2024-27.
The accreditation is awarded in recognition of the pharmacy’s commitment to meeting and exceeding national quality standards, it said. PCAB Accreditation reflects an organization’s dedication and commitment to meeting standards that facilitate a higher level of performance and patient care.
According to The Williamsburg Drug Company, compounding is an integral part of the practice of pharmacy, and the demand for these customized medications increases every year. Compounded medications are prescribed by physicians, veterinarians, and other legally authorized healthcare providers and prepared for an individual patient by a specially trained Pharmacist.
Established in 2007, PCAB was founded by eight of the nation’s leading pharmacy organizations to create voluntary quality accreditation designation for the compounding industry. In 2014, PCAB accreditation became a service of Accreditation Commission for Health Care (ACHC), whereby ACHC administers the PCAB Accreditation program.
