Stop bad legislation before it starts

Written by Andrew | Jun 26, 2026

Increasingly, the threats to pharmacy compounding aren't coming from nowhere — they're showing up as drugmaker-backed bills in statehouses across the country, often loaded with restrictions designed to box out compounded medications and the patients who depend on them.

The best defense is a relationship with your elected officials before one of those bills lands on a committee agenda.

That’s why APC has launched a new suite of member-only resources built to make outreach fast, targeted, and effective.

  • Contact your state legislators to request a meeting or pharmacy visit
  • Look up elected pharmacists and physicians in office because they’re natural allies who already understand what happens behind the counter
  • Reach your governor and state attorney general, the officials with final say over bills and how pharmacy law is enforced
  • Tap the Health & Human Services Committee Directory to find the members who hear pharmacy legislation first — and reach them early
  • Write an op-ed for your hometown paper — the local press lawmakers actually read

The laws that govern your pharmacy are written by people who often have little exposure to compounding. These tools give you a clear path to change that — whether you're making a first contact or deepening a relationship you’ve already built.

These resources are for APC members only; you must be logged in to access them.
