Whereas common allergens such as corn, peanuts, soybeans,
gum, and dyes are frequently used in most versions of
pharmaceutical products in the United States;
Whereas pharmaceutical products have yielded great benefits
in the treatment and prevention of illness and other med-
ical conditions;
Whereas persons with severe food allergies are often unable
to locate prescription medication that does not contain
ingredients to which they are allergic;
Whereas pharmacists may use the process of extemporaneous
compounding to custom formulate medications for per-
sons with specific medical needs, if the pharmacists ob-
tain the active ingredients for the medications from a
pharmaceutical company; and
Whereas persons who are allergic to ingredients in prescrip-
tion medication often find it difficult to locate a phar-
macist to provide the service of extemporaneous
compounding: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate
concurring), That it is the sense of the Congress that any
comprehensive health care reform measure enacted by the
Congress should include provisions to ensure that extem-
poraneous compounding is made available to provide aller-
gen-free medications for persons who suffer from severe
food allergies, or other medical conditions, that make them
unable to utilize other, commercially available, medica-
