Massachusetts has broad telehealth prescribing parity compared with many states, which is why video-first weight-loss clinics in Somerville are a normal account type for us. Controlled substances are still federal: testosterone remains Schedule III, and state telehealth laws do not waive Ryan Haight requirements. For the underlying 503A vs 503B split, we keep a longer explainer on 503A vs 503B compounding.
USP chapters 795, 797, and 800 are the compounding standards we work to. Chapter 797 addresses sterile compounding, and Chapter 800 addresses hazardous drug handling. The Massachusetts Board of Registration in Pharmacy can tell you how Massachusetts expects a nonresident pharmacy to document that. Massachusetts is also one of the states where nonresident compounding is not a paperwork afterthought — expect extra documentation up front.
