The legal landscape for why these products are available and how long they will be available is dependent on pending litigation as well as an FDA determination of a drug shortage. Pharmacists, especially within the primary care setting, need to be aware of the current events surrounding compounded GLP-1ra products from both a legal and safety perspective. The evolving landscape with these compounded products warrants a CE course to ensure pharmacists are kept informed.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">This presentation will explain the legality behind why FDA-approved products can be compounded by groups external to the manufacturer and explain the safety risks that have been identified by FDA safety alerts.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"cl-tiles halves\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"cl-wrapper cl-card-wrapper\"><a class=\"cl-card  \" href=\"https:\/\/360.articulate.com\/review\/content\/eeea0b83-0be5-4ccf-9ec2-c6f648cbceb6\/review\" title=\"\"><div class=\"cl-card-container media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/pharmce\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1382\/glp.jpg\" srcset=\"\" alt=\"glp\"><\/div><div class=\"cl-card-container text\"><\/div><div class=\"cl-card-container button\">Click to start course<\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<div>\n<section class=\"cl-wrapper cl-boxout-wrapper\"><div class=\"cl-boxout  \"><h1>CLAIMING CE CREDIT<\/h1><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>This educational activity is provided free of charge.<\/h3>\n<p>If you wish to claim CE credit for participation there is a $7.00 accreditation service fee which is paid when you register for the course.<\/p>\n<p><\/p><\/div><\/section><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h3>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Target Audience<\/h3>\n<p>Pharmacists in all practice settings.<\/p>\n<h3>Learning Objectives<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Describe the differences between 503a and 503b compounding laws<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Define the benefits and limitations of current compounding legislation, considering their impact on the product availability and safety<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Explain why GLP-1Ras can legally be compounded<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Summarize safety concerns\/alerts identified by the FDA regarding the use of compounded GLP-1ra products<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Evaluation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>All participants will have the opportunity to review the educational sessions and speakers and to identify future educational needs.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Statement of Disclosure<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>In accordance with the Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education (ACPE) Standards for Continuing Pharmacy Education, The University of Rhode Island College of Pharmacy requires that program faculty disclose any relationship (e.g., shareholder, recipient of research grant, consultant or member of an advisory committee) that the faculty may have with commercial companies whose products or services may be mentioned in their presentations.
