three years of state board threads, summarised so you do not have to read them
Posting this as a discussion rather than a claim: three years of state board threads, summarised so you do not have to read them.

Compounded preparations are not approved products and carry no bioequivalence claim. That is a statement about regulatory category, not about quality.
Was there potency testing on the finished preparation, or only on the starting material?
