The logistics that change in Frederick

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 Frederick sits with the Maryland Board of Pharmacy.

Maryland has a large provider base concentrated in the Baltimore-Washington corridor and accepts nonresident pharmacy licenses. Verify a pharmacy license on the Maryland Board of Pharmacy site for current licensure information.

What Maryland requires of a Frederick shipment

From Palm Harbor, Florida to Frederick, typical ground after dispatch is 2–4 business days. Most preparations for compounded medications in this category do not require frozen packing, but we still choose packaging for the weather the carton will actually sit in.

Ordering compounded medications in Frederick

Frederick is a mid-size city of about 85,793 residents in Frederick County (U.S. Census Bureau, Vintage 2023 population estimates). High-volume clinics and groups here usually need two ship-to patterns: the suite, and the patient who never comes in. We do both on the same account.

Who this is for in Frederick

We do not operate a compounding bench in Frederick. Promise Pharmacy is a 503A pharmacy at 31818 US Hwy 19 N, Palm Harbor, FL 34684.

Questions we actually get

Compounded medications in Frederick, MD

01Do you have a pharmacy location in Frederick?+

No. Promise Pharmacy compounds at 31818 US Hwy 19 N, Palm Harbor, FL 34684 and ships compounded medications to Frederick as a licensed nonresident 503A pharmacy. There is no Frederick storefront or local pickup window.

02How long does an order take to reach Frederick?+

Plan on five business days of compounding plus 2–4 business days in transit after dispatch. Heat, cold, and air lanes (Alaska and Hawaii) can add time. If the preparation is refrigerated, it ships in insulated packaging.

03Can you ship directly to my patient in Frederick instead of my clinic?+

Yes, when the prescription and the ship-to match. Direct-to-patient is routine for high-volume clinics and groups. We still need an individual patient Rx — this is not office-use stocking.

04Is 503A compounding legal to ship into Maryland?+

Patient-specific 503A compounding is a federal pathway (21 U.S.C. § 353a) used with a valid prescription. Shipping into Maryland additionally requires that we hold the nonresident permissions Maryland asks of out-of-state pharmacies. Confirm current licensure with the Maryland Board of Pharmacy.

05What license do I need to order for patients in Frederick, MD?+

An active prescribing license recognized in Maryland (MD, DO, NP, PA, or equivalent). We verify credentials before the account is live. Controlled substances also require DEA registration. The Maryland Board of Pharmacy is the state pharmacy regulator.
