North Carolina News: Item 2104 - New Labeling Law
Reprinted from the January 2006 North Carolina Board of Pharmacy Newsletter.
This is another reminder that beginning in January 2006 Board rules now require the generic name of the product on the label even if no generic product is available.
Board staff also reminds pharmacists dispensing compounded prescriptions that the name of active ingredients needs to be included on the label in generic form. One recent report described a compounded product that contained the name of the drug but not its concentration. This information is essential for treatment by other health care providers.
