National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health NIOSH Drugs are divided into 3 groups: 1.

-dermal absorption Examples of Exposures Table (1): Examples of Exposures Table (2): Assessment of Risk from Low to High Risk Levels: Drugs on NIOSH list that must follow the requirements of USP 800 include: Any hazardous drug active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) Any antineoplastic requiring manipulation Drugs on the NIOSH list that do NOT have to follow all of the containment requirements of USP 800 if an assessment of risk is performed and implemented include: Final dosage forms that do not require further manipulation other than counting or repackaging Equipment and Facility Requirements: Engineering Controls 1. containment primary engineering controls (C-PECs) 2. containment secondary engineering controls (C-SECs) 3. supplemental engineering controls are adjunct controls to offer additional levels of protection C-PECs rely on high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters C-PECs Sterile Compounding: -must protect the compounder and the product from contamination ex: Class II
Biological safety cabiner (BSC) C-PECs Nonsterile Compounding: -must protect the compounder ex: containment ventilated enclosures (CVE) Containment secondary engineering controls (C-SECs) the room in which the containment primary engineering control (C-PEC) is placed For both sterile and nonsterile compounding, the room must be: C-SECs Sterile compounding: Personal Protective equipment (PPE) PPE requirements ...
