The Connecticut Board of Pharmacy told applicants that a simple email will no longer secure agenda placement and that a new online request form under the pharmacist license credential must be completed. The board then voted to approve multiple resident and nonresident pharmacy license applications and separate requests related to compounding permissions.

The procedural change was presented to the board as a way to reduce missed or late requests: a board staff member said, "Now there is a form, a request form that needs to be filled out" and confirmed the form is available under the pharmacist license credential on the department website.

On licensing actions, the board accepted motions and approved requests for new resident pharmacy applications after applicants either appeared or were considered in absentia. Specific approvals recorded in the meeting included routine consent approvals for new resident pharmacies.

The board also considered nonresident pharmacy applications and recommended approvals after reviewers confirmed required inspections and documentation. A commissioner reported that the board had been waiting on confirmations from other boards and inspection reports: the Super Saver pharmacy doing business as Rush submitted the requested NABP inspection; Wedgewood provided a survey from an approved organization; both were recommended for approval. Honeybee Health provided required non‑sterile inspection documentation and was recommended for approval to conduct non‑sterile compounding. Another applicant, identified as HRX in the meeting, requested both sterile and non‑sterile permissions; reviewers found the non‑sterile documentation in order but that the sterile ("797") documentation remained outstanding, so the board approved only the non‑sterile portion until the sterile inspection is submitted.

Board votes on the licensing items were made by motion with voice votes recorded as "aye"; the meeting transcript records motions, seconds and unanimous voice approval on the presented items. The board also directed that applications older than roughly a year and a half without required follow‑up be resubmitted with current fees and documentation.

The board's action means applicants must use the new form to request agenda placement and that several out‑of‑state and compounding‑related applicants received approval to operate in Connecticut, subject to completion of any outstanding inspection documentation where noted.
