drugs can be stored. Adding further complication, nonsterile hazardous drugs can't be stored
in the sterile buffer room.
Design options:
* An existing storage room or office can be converted into a negatively pressurized storage
area for both sterile and nonsterile hazardous
drugs.
* The sterile hazardous-drug buffer room can
double as storage for sterile hazardous drugs,
but nonsterile hazardous drugs must be stored
in a separate, dedicated hazardous drug storage room.
As a rule of thumb, drug storage is initially estimated at 100 square feet per PEC. Local authorities may have stricter regulations than USP 800,
though, and should be consulted on a project,
ideally when a pharmacy is beginning to consider how to upgrade current facilities to the latest
requirements.

USP 800 will affect many existing pharmacy departments throughout the country. New policies
and procedures regarding the handling of drugs,
personal protective equipment, and spill control
will be required, in addition to the physical building environment being reviewed to determine
how the space is or is not complying and what potential upgrades must be made.
Facilities that can't meet the July 2018 compliance date may be able to discuss waivers with
their local pharmacy authority to have more
time or to modify their process temporarily until
compliance can be achieved. Some pharmacies
with low hazardous drug compounding requirements may also choose, either temporarily or
permanently, to outsource hazardous drug compounding to avoid facility upgrades.
A design professional can help identify potential space and infrastructure modifications
needed for compliance. This planning should
be done early to help identify and budget capital
expenditures required for compliance. Another
good step is to reach out to the local pharmacy
authority to discuss the implementation of the
new USP requirements and how these changes
will be regulated locally.
