To assist pharmacists make hand sanitizer, PCCA wants to relay hand sanitizer compound formulas provided by the World Health Organization. Also, a video of how Steve Hoffart, PharmD, in Magnolia, Texas is assisting his community by donating hand sanitizer to his law enforcement departments during the coronavirus outbreak.

PCCA has been closely monitoring the situation around coronavirus (COVID-19) and responded by creating a coronavirus resource page designed to help pharmacies and their patients.

PCCA’s Clinical Services department recently spoke with pharmacies in different parts of the country who had an issue with their omeprazole formulations turning purple. Our Clinical Services Manager, Matt Martin, PharmD, provides insight into the likely culprits of the coloration changes.
