Update from Tricare on compounded meds - TRICARE is evaluating the issue of pharmaceutical compounds. We are working to ensure both excellent and safe care for our beneficiaries and clear communication with our providers and beneficiaries. To assure success in both of these efforts, TRICARE will delay the implementation of any change in practice on compounded prescriptions for 180 days. Compounded prescriptions are tailored for individuals by pharmacists. These prescriptions may contain both conventional medications and other ingredients. Many of the included ingredients are not FDA approved. Those compound prescriptions which contain ingredients that are not FDA approved are the ones that TRICARE is concerned about.
