    Compliant Waste Disposal for 503B Outsourcing Facilities

    503B pharmacies face strict oversight from the FDA, DEA, EPA, and state boards of pharmacy. As sterile and non-sterile compounders producing medications in bulk for office use, these facilities must securely dispose of expired inventory, hazardous compounds, controlled substances, and RCRA-listed materials. Easy RX Cycle delivers tailored, fully documented waste solutions — including DEA Form 41 and 222 support, hazardous drug disposal, and USP <800> compliance — to keep your outsourcing operation safe and audit-ready.

     

    Why Proper Waste Disposal Is Critical for 503B Pharmacies

    503B outsourcing facilities operate under FDA cGMP standards and face high scrutiny from regulatory agencies like the DEA, EPA, and OSHA. Improper disposal of expired drugs, controlled substances, or hazardous compounds can lead to costly violations, failed inspections, and operational shutdowns.

    Easy Rx Cycle ensures your waste is handled legally and responsibly, giving you full traceability and audit readiness for every pickup and destruction.
