Lucy Malmberg, R.Ph., F.A.C.A., F.A.C.V.P.

Lucy Malmberg, R.Ph., F.A.C.A., F.A.C.V.P., executive vice president and corporate secretary/treasurer of Wedgewood Pharmacy, has more than 30 years experience in the pharmacy profession. She is a registered pharmacist in Pennsylvania and Delaware. As co-founder of Wedgewood Pharmacy, she has been instrumental in transforming the company from a strip-mall pharmacy purchased in 1981 into a multi-million dollar, specialized compounding pharmacy that is now one of the largest in the United States, serving more than 20,000 prescribers nationwide.

In 2002 Malmberg was a leader of the industry coalition of seven compounding pharmacies that argued successfully before the Supreme Court of the United States that the Food and Drug Modernization Act of 1997 (FDAMA), which prohibited pharmacists from advertising or promoting compounded drugs, was a violation of their First Amendment rights. Since that time, Malmberg has continued to lead industry efforts to protect the right of licensed prescribers to prescribe, and licensed compounding pharmacists to provide, custom-made drugs to meet the needs of individual patients.

In 2005 Malmberg was instrumental in forming the International Academy of Compounding Pharmacists' (IACP) public affairs task force, which created an advocacy program centered around Patients and Professionals for Customized Care (P2C2), a Web site that provides tools and information for advocates of compounding pharmacy to influence public policy. In 2007 a coalition led by IACP's public affairs group was successful in preventing draft Federal legislation, which would have severely restricted access to life-saving compounded medications from being introduced into the Senate.

Prior to Wedgewood, Malmberg was an executive at E.I. Dupont de Nemours & Company, Inc. in a variety of sales, marketing and business operations positions.

Malmberg is a member of the American Pharmaceutical Association, the National Community Pharmacist Association, the International Academy of Compounding Pharmacies, and is a Fellow in the American College of Apothecaries and the American College of Veterinary Pharmacists. She was active with the American Red Cross of the Delmarva Peninsula from 1995-2001, holding titles from board member, board secretary, board vice chair and board chair.

In 1991 Malmberg was awarded the DuPont Vice President's Award for Quality and Leadership, and in March 1993 the DuPont Engineering Award for her leadership and contribution to the Hotel DuPont project.

Malmberg holds a B.S. degree in Pharmacy from the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy at the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia.
