In Indiana, compounding is pharmacy practice by definition. The practice of pharmacy is performed by a pharmacist — or by a pharmacist intern or an unlicensed person the pharmacist SUPERVISES under section 18.5 — and it includes “the compounding, labeling, administering, dispensing, or selling of drugs and devices … whether dispensed under a practitioner’s prescription or drug order or sold or given directly to the ultimate consumer”, together with their proper and safe storage and distribution and the maintenance of records of receipt, storage, sale and dispensing.

⚠️ and the statute itself sets no compounding standard — it delegates one. In full: “THE BOARD MAY ADOPT A RULE UNDER IC 4-22-2 concerning pharmacies that perform compounding.” Chapter 25-26-13 was read in full for this entry and contains no quantity limit, no office-use permission and no sterile-compounding standard. Whatever governs those in Indiana is in the Board of Pharmacy’s rules, which are published on a page that serves no readable text to us — so nothing is claimed about them here.

← All Indiana rules and changes · MedSpaRadar is regulatory monitoring and reference: it summarizes public laws, regulations and agency actions and links each to its source. It is not legal, medical, or compliance advice, and using it creates no attorney-client relationship. A summary can lag its source or leave out detail, and monitoring itself can be interrupted — so an absence of alerts means nothing reached you, not that nothing happened.
