We’re briefing on the Hill. This coming Tuesday, APC is holding a pharmacy compounding policy...
Short Takes: September 25, 2025
Lend us your ears. Don’t forget to check out the first episode of the brand-spanking new Essential: The Pharmacy Compounding Podcast from APC. It’s smart, it’s timely, and yes, it’s sometimes delightfully nerdy about pharmacy compounding.

That first episode includes an overview of the latest compounding news before diving into the FDA’s eyebrow-raising move to reclassify natural thyroid products, and why it matters to patients everywhere. It’s about 30 minutes long — perfect to listen to while washing dishes after a day of compounding — or for the drive home.
Help spread the DTE word. Our work to get FDA to reverse its impending ban on desiccated thyroid extract is ramping up, and we absolutely need your help getting the word out to patients. You’ll find a host of resources to help you do that on our DTE resources page, but the easiest thing to do is point your DTE patients to compounding.com/thyroid — they’ll be able to share their stories, send a message to FDA, and help protect thyroid treatments for themselves and everyone else.
OK, KS, TX: Time’s running out!
