With the increasing demand for GLP-1 medications for weight loss, ensuring that your compounding pharmacy adheres to the highest safety and quality standards is essential. Poorly compounded Semaglutide and Tirzepatide can compromise patient outcomes, lead to regulatory issues, and damage your reputation as a medical provider.
At Vigor Compounding, we uphold the industry’s most rigorous safety, sterility, and potency standards. Our state-of-the-art 503A compounding facility and third-party tested formulations ensure that healthcare providers can trust every batch. If you want to offer compounded Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, ask your pharmacy these five questions first to help safeguard your patients and practice.
1. Does the Pharmacy Meet 503A Facility Standards?
Many compounding pharmacies fall into two categories: 503A and 503B. While 503B outsourcing facilities focus on large-scale production for office use only, 503A pharmacies like Vigor Compounding specialize in patient-specific medications prescribed by licensed providers. This personalized model allows for greater flexibility, faster turnaround, and collaboration between pharmacists and prescribers.
At Vigor Compounding, we operate under 503A guidelines while upholding rigorous quality standards. Every formulation is compounded in a sterile environment, with testing protocols in place to support safety, consistency, and therapeutic integrity. We focus on precision, clinical transparency, and individualized care to deliver results you can trust.
2. What Testing Protocols Are in Place?
Every batch of compounded medication should undergo comprehensive third-party testing to confirm sterility, potency, and endotoxin levels.
At Vigor Compounding, every GLP-1 formulation is third-party tested to ensure:
- Sterility compliance with USP <71>.
- Low endotoxin levels as per USP <85>.
- Potency verification under ISO 17025 laboratory accreditation.
3. Where Are the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) Sourced From?
The quality of compounded medications begins with high-grade Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs). Providers should verify:
- Are APIs sourced from FDA-registered suppliers?
- Do they meet strict purity and potency criteria?
- Are there transparent supply chain practices?
Vigor Compounding exclusively sources APIs from FDA-accredited facilities, ensuring the highest clarity, stability, and effectiveness for patient safety.
4. Does the Pharmacy Offer Vitamin B6 in the GLP-1 Formulations?
Compounded GLP-1 medications can be enhanced with Vitamin B6 to reduce common side effects such as nausea. B6 is thought to help:
- Alleviate nausea
- Support metabolism and energy levels
- Improve medication tolerance
Vigor Compounding’s B6-enhanced Semaglutide and Tirzepatide offer a superior patient experience, supporting long-term success in weight loss therapy.
5. What Support Does the Pharmacy Provide for Healthcare Providers?
A top-tier compounding pharmacy should offer more than just a medication supply. It should also provide business growth opportunities, training, and ongoing support for healthcare providers.
At Vigor Compounding, we offer:
- Practice Partnership Program
- Business in a Box
- Provider Training & Support
