Licensing and compounding rules

  • Pharmacies outside South Carolina need a Non-Resident Pharmacy Permit to dispense legend drugs to South Carolina patients; any applicant that compounds (sterile or non-sterile) must submit additional compounding documentation even if not shipping compounded drugs immediately. 503B outsourcing facilities require a separate Outsourcing Facility Permit.

Federal baseline: office-use stock without a patient-specific prescription is lawful only from 503B outsourcing facilities, regardless of what a state allows. AffinityRx does not support office-use or clinic-stock ordering yet: ordering is patient-specific today, and office-use ordering arrives with 503B outsourcing facilities in Q4 2026–Q1 2027. Rules summarize the sources listed below and can change; verify with the board.
