Which telehealth providers use Winona Pharmacy (El Dorado Hills)
One telehealth provider in the Telehealth Ledger directory names Winona Pharmacy (El Dorado Hills) as a fulfillment pharmacy on its own public pages: Winona. Each name below links to that provider's profile, where the pharmacy statement sits beside its dated source.
Winona's pharmacy disclosure, as recorded in its dossier: Quoted from Winona's FAQ: "Your medications are shipped directly from one of our two 503A compounding pharmacies in El Dorado Hills, California and Twin Falls, Idaho."
Naming a pharmacy does not mean every prescription goes there. Most telehealth services list several partners and route each order by medication, state licensure, and stock, so the pharmacy on your label can differ from the marketing page. The vial label is the authoritative record of who compounded and dispensed it.
503A vs 503B compounding pharmacy: what it means for your prescription
Winona Pharmacy (El Dorado Hills) is recorded here as a 503A compounding pharmacy. Winona's pharmacy page says its pharmacies are classified with 503A status because they develop individual prescriptions for each patient, and its help center says Winona owns and operates two 503A compounding pharmacies; neither entity appears on FDA's registered outsourcing facility list (checked 2026-09-10).
A 503A pharmacy compounds a patient-specific prescription and is licensed and inspected primarily by its state board of pharmacy; it does not register with FDA as an outsourcing facility and is not required to follow federal current good manufacturing practice (CGMP). Compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide from a 503A pharmacy is not an FDA-approved product, and the beyond-use date on the label comes from the pharmacy's own stability practice under USP standards rather than from an approved drug application.
FDA inspection history and public regulatory records
No FDA warning letter, Form 483 observation list, inspection classification, or state board action naming Elevation Family Pharmacy Inc dba Winona Pharmacy was found in the public databases checked on 10 September 2026. That is a statement about the search, not a clearance: FDA inspects 503A pharmacies only for cause or on referral, so most state-licensed compounders have no federal record at all, and state board actions are held in separate state systems.
Databases checked: FDA registered outsourcing facilities list (updated 2026-09-08) (no record found); FDA compounding inspections, recalls, and other actions (no record found).
If a new letter, action, or recall appears, it is added with its date and primary link and earlier summaries are not rewritten.
State pharmacy license and accreditation
A public California board of pharmacy license record for Elevation Family Pharmacy Inc dba Winona Pharmacy was not found through the lookups tried, or the lookup requires an interactive search that cannot be linked directly. That does not mean the pharmacy is unlicensed; most state verification portals do not expose stable URLs. Non-resident licenses in the states it ships to are held in each of those states' own systems.
No NABP accreditation (PCAB, Digital Pharmacy, or similar) was found listed for this pharmacy on the dates checked. Accreditation is voluntary and its absence is not a finding.
Beyond-use date (BUD) and testing policy
Winona Pharmacy (El Dorado Hills) publishes this about stability, testing, or beyond-use dating: "we test our formulations for active ingredient concentrations more frequently than the recommended once per year"
A beyond-use date (BUD) is the date after which a compounded preparation must not be used; the pharmacy assigns it under USP <797> sterile compounding standards and prints it on the dispensing label. It is not the same as a manufacturer's expiration date on a brand pen. Follow the storage and BUD printed on your pharmacy label; if a vial arrives without one, ask the dispensing pharmacy before use.
How compounded GLP-1 medication is shipped from this pharmacy
Winona Pharmacy (El Dorado Hills) describes its shipping this way: "All packages are shipped free of charge via USPS Ground Advantage"
Provider shipping claims: Winona says Quoted from Winona's FAQ: "Typically, the pharmacy prepares and ships each order within 1–2 business days... packages should arrive within 3–5 business days."
Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide ship refrigerated: an insulated box with cold packs, usually by an overnight or two-day carrier service on weekdays so a package is never in transit over a weekend. On arrival, put the vial in the refrigerator, check the label for the BUD and storage line, and contact the pharmacy if the cold pack is fully thawed or the vial is warm.
