| What are your general responsibilities as a compounder? | |
| What are your responsibilities in terms of documentation, QA, and QC? | |
| Give examples of quality assurance and examples of quality control. Is the completion of a compounding/manufacturing record QC or QA? Is visually inspecting the final product QC or QA? | |
| List items present in Quality Assurance and observation techniques or tests that can be used in Quality Control. | |
| List and discuss functions, incompatibilities, for packaging. Which ones protect products from light? Can protection from light be achieved through secondary packaging? | |
