LET gel in ambulatory clinics

We are currently looking for a new way to procure LET gel for our urgent/immediate care clinic network. I'm curious how those of you with ambulatory clinics are supplying this compounded medication.

(1) 503b compounding pharmacy? If so, which one? Some report they are unable to distribute direct to clinic (can only dispense to a licensed pharmacy).

(2) Fagron LET gel convenience kit? If so, I'd be interested to learn more about logistics (i.e. training/competency for staff, Fagron recommends preparation in a hood--are others doing this, any safety events related to compounding errors).

(3) Other source?

Thanks for your input!
