Credentialing is not a formality. We check an active Massachusetts-recognized prescribing license (MD, DO, NP, PA, or equivalent) before the account orders compounded medications. Testosterone and other controlled substances also need DEA registration.

Massachusetts has enhanced compounding oversight following the NECC incident and requires strict compliance for nonresident pharmacies. Massachusetts is also one of the states where nonresident compounding is not a paperwork afterthought — expect extra documentation up front. Verify a pharmacy license on the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Pharmacy site for current licensure information.
Federal compounding authority for what we do is 503A of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 353a): a licensed pharmacy, a patient-specific prescription, USP compounding standards. State permission to land the package in Cambridge sits with the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Pharmacy.
We do not operate a compounding bench in Cambridge. Promise Pharmacy is a 503A pharmacy at 31818 US Hwy 19 N, Palm Harbor, FL 34684. Patient-specific compounds for Cambridge are prepared there, then shipped to the clinic or the patient named on the prescription. Local walk-in service and pickup are not available in Cambridge.
