This study was performed to investigate currentproposals and actual productions of compounding preparations and management practices in hospital pharmacies nationwide,and to make suggestions for a comprehensive and effective management system by comparing and analyzing the nationaland foreign safety management systems. As a result of this study, we figured out 1,984 compounding preparations in thehospital setting were proposed, and 1,181 of them (59.5%) were actually produced in 2014. The majority of the preparationswere reported from metropolitan areas including Seoul and Gyeonggi-do since there are many major medical centers andhospitals in this area. Majority of the compounded medications were solutions for external use, particularly antiseptic solutions. The study showed variety of status of approval procedure, regular report, information for beyond use date and managingpharmacist education in survey hospitals. Compared to other foreign countries, the range of the compounding in Koreahas been limited to prescription drugs excluding narcotics, psychotropic drugs and nonprescription medications. Compoundingpreparations will be able to deal with the situations in which patients are not satisfied with the marketed medicationsand need individualized medications regimen. It is necessary to standardize safe management for production andusing of compounding preparations. KCI Citation Count: 0
