At PCCA, we strive to lead through innovation and are defined by our unwavering commitment to quality. That’s why we’re proud to share some exciting news: LoxOral® and Anhydrous SuspendIt®, two of our most widely used proprietary bases, are now part of the U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP) Ingredient Verification Program for Excipients.

We’re honored to be the first FDA-registered supplier to receive USP Verification for compounding bases. We proactively pursued and invested in this program to verify the quality of our bases, even though regulations do not require it. We believe raising the bar on quality isn’t just a choice, it’s a responsibility.

Why USP Verification Matters

USP sets public quality standards that are used in over 140 countries. Earning the USP Verified Mark for Excipients means a product has met USP’s rigorous testing, review and auditing criteria for manufacturing process and quality.

For us, this verification recognition isn’t just a credential — it’s a reflection of who we are. It shows that when we say our bases are trusted quality, consistent and reliable, we have the science and third-party confirmation to prove it.

A Closer Look at Our USP Verified Excipient Bases

Currently, our two USP Verified Excipient bases are:

  • LoxOral: An all-in-one compounding excipient designed for oral capsules, facilitating the easy mixing of diverse active pharmaceutical ingredients.
  • Anhydrous SuspendIt: A specially designed, water-free oral base that mixes easily with liquids and offers improved taste and broader applications.

These bases have been trusted by compounding pharmacists for years. Now, they carry the USP Verified Mark for Excipients — offering a new level of confidence for you and your patients.

Proactive, Not Reactive

This achievement reflects our commitment to leading the industry, not just keeping up with it. As our CEO Gus Bassani, PharmD, puts it:

“This validation milestone demonstrates our ‘Quality without Compromise’ core value in action. Confirmation of quality through independent verification reinforces our promise to pharmacies and patients alike. By undertaking this approach, we help our members compound with confidence.”

And we’re not stopping here. We’re actively working toward USP Verification for additional proprietary bases — part of our longstanding investment in research, innovation and raising the bar for quality in pharmaceutical compounding.

What This Means for You

The USP Verified distinction sets PCCA’s products apart, adding a powerful mark of quality to complement the exceptional performance and functionality of our compounding bases. When you choose PCCA, you’re choosing more than a base — you’re choosing trusted quality, scientific rigor and a partner committed to your success.

We’re proud to take this step forward with you, and we’ll continue to lead with integrity, innovation and a focus on what matters most: your ability to serve patients with confidence.
