Pharmaceutical Repackaging

Picture of various pharmaceuticalsPharmaceutical Repackaging was established to aid VA facilities with drug shortages for high-volume pharmaceuticals.  Staff within pharmaceutical repackaging works to award contracts and execute Blanket Purchase Agreements (BPA) against existing Federal Supply Schedule contracts for pharmaceuticals in bulk sizes that facilitate delivery to the VA repackager, which supplies these products in government labeled, unit of use containers.  BPA contractors deliver the products in bulk directly to the VA repackager for repackaging unit-of-use containers as requested by customers.  Customers of pharmaceutical repackaging order direct and receive supplies from the VA repackager.  The main contact for pharmaceutical repackaging is Fran DeRosa (708) 786-5921.
