Citing COVID-19-stoked shortages, the FDA has
issued guidance related to its oversight of alcohol-based hand
sanitizers aimed at boosting supply.
Effective immediately, it will not take action
against manufacturing firms that are making said hand sanitizers for
institutional and consumer use.
It is also allowing, on a temporary basis,
compounders to make certain alcohol-based hand sanitizers without the
need for a prescription. This applies only to handrub products prepared
using United States Pharmacopoeia or Food Chemical Codex grade
ingredients specifically described in the guidance, consistent with
World Health Organization recommendations.
