Red Rock does something most compounding pharmacies do not: it publishes its state pharmacy license numbers, one per state, on a page anyone can read. That single decision makes it one of the easier pharmacies in this market to check, and checking is the whole point of knowing a pharmacy's name. Checked August 29, 2026.

Find the right website first

Start with a practical warning, because it will cost you ten minutes otherwise. The obvious address, redrockpharmacy.com, answers with a page whose title is "Loading..." and whose body is a single JavaScript redirect — no content reaches a plain reader or a plain fetch. The pharmacy's own pages are served from redrockhomepharmacy.com, which carries the footer "© 2026 Red Rock Home Pharmacy" and brands itself "Red Rock Compounding Pharmacy" on its about page1. Every quote below comes from that site.

A 503A pharmacy that started in long-term care

The company dates itself on its homepage: "Since 2017, Red Rock Compounding Pharmacy has blended the science of compounding with personalized care to help you reach your health and wellness goals"1. Its about page adds the origin story and the category in the same breath — "Red Rock began as a long-term care pharmacy in Salt Lake City, Utah" — and lists its own credentials as "503A licensed," "USP 795, 797, and 800 compliant" and offering "sterile and non-sterile compounding"2.

Both parts of that matter. 503A is the category of compounding done against a prescription written for a named patient, licensed and supervised by state boards of pharmacy. It is not the category that operates under the FDA's manufacturing rules. The FDA states the difference plainly: "Drugs compounded in outsourcing facilities are subject to current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) requirements. By contrast, drugs compounded by a licensed pharmacist in a state-licensed pharmacy or federal facility, or by a physician, in accordance with the conditions of section 503A of the FD&C Act, are not"5.

We checked the pharmacy's self-description against the federal register of the other category. FDA publishes a weekly table of every facility registered as an outsourcing facility under section 503B; on the version read August 29, 2026 it carried 98 facilities, and Red Rock was not among them, by name or by a Utah address4. The two readings agree: this is a 503A pharmacy.

That is worth stating clearly because one company on this ranking describes Red Rock as running "503A and 503B facilities." Where a seller's description and the federal register disagree, the register is the one you can check yourself, and it is linked below.

What the license page actually proves

Red Rock's licenses page opens by describing its customers rather than its patients: "At Red Rock, we partner with thousands of practitioners across the country to provide patients with timely, customized medications"3. Below that it lists pharmacy licenses one state at a time, each with a license number — "TX Pharmacy License, License Number: 33555," "DC Pharmacy License, License Number: NRX240001251," and so on.

Parsed on August 29, 2026, the page carried 59 license entries covering 50 distinct jurisdictions: 49 states plus the District of Columbia, with ten states listed twice. The one state absent from the page is Arkansas. The about page, on the same site, says the pharmacy serves "49 states"2 — consistent with the license list if the District is counted separately, and a good example of why a count is worth less than a list.

A published license number is a real, checkable claim, which is exactly what makes it valuable. Take the number for your own state and search your state board of pharmacy's license lookup. If the number resolves to an active nonresident pharmacy license in that name, the pharmacy has told you the truth in a way you did not have to take on faith. Very few operations in this market give you that option.

What the page does not prove is anything about the drug in the vial. A state pharmacy license authorizes a pharmacy to dispense into a state. It is not a review of any compounded preparation, and the FDA is blunt about the category as a whole: "Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. This means that FDA does not verify the safety, effectiveness or quality of compounded drugs before they are marketed"5.

FDA's record, read rather than assumed

FDA's warning-letter index was read in full on August 29, 2026 — 3,664 letters, of which 59 carry a compounding subject. All 59 letter bodies were fetched and searched for Red Rock by name and by its Utah locations. There were no matches. The same pass returns three letters addressed to Empower, so the search was working when it found nothing here.

Two limits on that. FDA addresses letters to legal entities at street addresses, so a trading name alone is a weak key, which is why the search covered the addresses too. And FDA's outsourcing-facility page notes that its own table "does not include State Board of Pharmacy actions, if any," pointing readers to the state board where a facility is located4. A dated absence from one federal database is not a clean record everywhere.

Who dispenses through Red Rock

Fourteen of the 507 companies tracked here name Red Rock in their own public disclosures, computed from our record on August 29, 2026: Sunlight, REMEVi, Tryozi, Aspen, NextMeds, Revel RX, Lttl, Claya, SnagRx, Premium Health, ElixaMD, HealthHub, Pomegranate Health and Bodyshop Wellness. That is more than name any other pharmacy on this ranking. Companies that publish no pharmacy name at all cannot appear in a count like this, so fourteen is the number that discloses, not the number that uses.

One wrinkle in that count is worth stating, because it is the kind of thing that makes a published number wrong. Ten of those fourteen file the name closed up, as "RedRock", and four write "Red Rock". A count keyed to the spaced spelling alone returns four and misses ten companies that do exactly what this page is asking companies to do. The figure above is computed on both spellings.

The check worth doing before you pay

Ask which pharmacy fills the prescription and get the answer in writing. Search FDA's outsourcing-facility table for the name to learn which regulatory category it sits in. If it is not there, search your own state board of pharmacy for a nonresident pharmacy license — and if the pharmacy publishes its license numbers, as Red Rock does, match the number rather than the name. Then search FDA's warning-letter database on the legal entity rather than the brand.

The other pharmacies named most often here have their own pages: Empower, Hallandale and Olympia. The rules behind the categories are in is compounded GLP-1 legit and safe, the operator checks are in how to tell if a GLP-1 provider is legit, coverage is at GLP-1 telehealth by state, and what the compounded market charges is at compounded tirzepatide cost. Our sources are indexed in the research library.

Frequently asked questions

Is Red Rock Pharmacy a 503A or a 503B facility?

503A. Its own about page lists 503A licensed among its credentials, and FDA's registered outsourcing facilities table — 98 facilities on the version read August 29, 2026 — does not list it. One company on this ranking describes it as running both; the federal register does not support that, and the register is the source you can check yourself.

How many states is Red Rock licensed in?

Its licenses page listed 59 license entries covering 49 states plus the District of Columbia when parsed on August 29, 2026, with a license number printed for each and ten states listed twice. The only state absent is Arkansas. The pharmacy's about page separately says 49 states.

Can I order from Red Rock directly?

No. Its licenses page describes partnering with thousands of practitioners to serve patients, and the site's calls to action are provider registration and refill requests. A clinician or a telehealth company sends the prescription.

Which website is actually Red Rock's?

redrockhomepharmacy.com. As of August 29, 2026 the shorter redrockpharmacy.com returns a page titled Loading... containing only a JavaScript redirect, with no readable content, so verify against the home-pharmacy domain.

Has Red Rock received an FDA warning letter?

None appears in FDA's warning-letter index as read in full on August 29, 2026 — 3,664 letters, of which the 59 with a compounding subject were fetched and searched by name and by the pharmacy's Utah locations. That is a dated absence rather than a clearance, and FDA's table separately notes that it does not include state board of pharmacy actions.
