Imagine having a clinical support team on-call 24/7, who is able to resolve tricky formula issues, research literature for new compounding developments, provide marketing and business support, and navigate esoteric government agency regulations. If you’re a PCCA member with clinical services access, you don’t have to imagine it — this “extension of your pharmacy staff” already exists! Members without clinical services access may not know what they’re missing — all for just $27 a day.
