Is the pharmacy on your label licensed? Read the record.
A compounded prescription names the pharmacy that made it, not the brand that sold it. We put the FDA's own inspection record on that name: registration, last inspection, Form 483, recalls, and what happened next — dated, sourced, and free. We are the one party on this page not selling you a drug.

Everyone explaining compounded drugs to you is selling one. The record isn't.
Search for a compounded GLP-1, a hormone, or a peptide and every result is a seller: the telehealth brand, the pharmacy, the clinic. The FDA publishes the inspection record of every registered outsourcing facility — on one hard-to-read page. We republish it, facility by facility, with the FDA's wording and the FDA's date, and link the state board for everything the FDA doesn't cover.
- Free, no account
- FDA text quoted, never paraphrased into fear or reassurance
- Every record stamped with the FDA's own update date
- Says when a pharmacy is simply not on this list, too
Why trust it
Nothing here is typed by hand
Every value on this site is downloaded from the regulator that published it, at the moment the site is built, and shown with the date that regulator put on it — not ours.
How to read a compounded prescription
Three checks before your next refill
Find the pharmacy on the label
Compounded drugs are labelled with the pharmacy that made them. If your telehealth brand will not tell you which pharmacy fills its prescriptions, that is itself a fact worth knowing.
Look it up here, then at the state
If it is an FDA-registered 503B facility, its inspection record is here. If it is a 503A pharmacy, its license lives with a state board of pharmacy — we link each one.
Compare the approved path
The FDA-approved version of many compounded drugs now sells direct from the manufacturer or through licensed telehealth. The honest comparison is price and record, side by side.
The register
What the FDA's list says today
Every figure below is counted from the FDA's own register of registered 503B outsourcing facilities, as the agency published it on 2026-10-13.
A Form 483 is a list of an investigator's observations, not a finding of violation, and most inspected facilities have received one — which is why the count above is high and why it means less than it looks. What the FDA did next is the part worth reading: 7 of the 98 carry a warning letter or an equivalent action on their record. The other 41 facilities have not been inspected yet, so their record is empty rather than clean. Read the full register →

Before you rely on this
What this site will not tell you
- Whether a pharmacy or a drug is safe, good or bad. We reproduce what the regulator published and the date it published it, and nothing else.
- Anything about your dose, your prescription or your health. That is between you and your prescriber.
- Whether an absent pharmacy is legitimate. Most compounding pharmacies are state-licensed and were never on the FDA's list.
How each record is sourced and how often it is re-read: methodology and data sources. How this site makes money, and what that can and cannot change: the disclosure.
Common questions
What people ask before they look up a pharmacy
What is Licensed Compounder?
An independent reference for anyone holding a compounded prescription, or a quote for one, who wants to know about the pharmacy that made it. It republishes the FDA's own register of 503B outsourcing facilities — registration, last inspection, whether a Form 483 was issued, whether a recall was conducted, and what action followed — with the date the FDA published it. Nobody on this site sells a drug, and no pharmacy can pay to change its record.
What is the difference between a 503A and a 503B pharmacy?
Both compound drugs. A 503A pharmacy compounds for individual patients on individual prescriptions and is licensed and inspected by its state board of pharmacy. A 503B outsourcing facility registers with the FDA, is inspected by the FDA, and must follow current good manufacturing practice; it can compound larger batches, including for clinics. Most telehealth-dispensed compounded drugs come from one of the two, and the label says which pharmacy. Our 503A vs 503B guide quotes the statute and the FDA on the consequences.
The pharmacy on my label is not in your lookup. Is it fake?
Not on that evidence. Our lookup covers FDA-registered 503B facilities only. Most compounding pharmacies are 503A pharmacies, licensed by a state board and never on the FDA list, so a legitimate pharmacy can be absent here. Check the state board of pharmacy for the state on the label; we link every board.
What does a Form 483 mean?
A Form 483 is the list of observations an FDA investigator leaves at the end of an inspection — conditions that, in the investigator's judgement, may violate the law. It is not a finding of violation and it is not rare: most inspected facilities on the FDA's list have received one. What matters is what the FDA did next, which the register also records: nothing yet, a regulatory meeting, or a warning letter.
How fresh is this data?
The FDA register is re-downloaded at every site build and stamped with the FDA's own update date — currently 2026-10-13. Between builds, the FDA's page is the authoritative source and we link it on every result.
