What must a med spa in Texas report to the board?
Facility · part of The Practice Perimeter
Short answer
The cited rules do not settle this in full — the only reporting duty they name is practitioner reporting of adverse events from compounded drugs supplied for office use, imposed through pharmacy board rules; no form or deadline is given.
The conditions sit on the pharmacy, not the practice. To dispense and deliver a compounded drug for office use a pharmacy must verify the source of the raw materials; comply with applicable united states pharmacopoeia guidelines including the testing requirements, and with HIPAA; comply with all applicable competency and accrediting standards as determined by the board; and comply with board rules “including rules regarding the reporting of adverse events by practitioners and recall procedures for compounded products”. That last clause reaches back to the practice: adverse-event reporting is a practitioner duty imposed through the pharmacy’s rules.

The sterile-compounding pharmacy carries two clocks. It shall notify the board “IMMEDIATELY of any adverse effects reported to the pharmacy or that are known by the pharmacy to be potentially attributable to a sterile preparation compounded by the pharmacy”, and “NOT LATER THAN 24 hours after the pharmacy issues a recall” for such a preparation. A practice that has administered from a recalled lot will hear about it on that timetable.

⚠️ Texas permits office-use compounding outright, which few states DO. “A pharmacy may dispense and deliver a reasonable quantity of a compounded drug to a practitioner for office use by the practitioner in accordance with this chapter.” There is no commercial-availability condition and no patient-specific prescription requirement — the limit is the phrase “reasonable quantity”.
