Vial2Bag Restrictions/Guidelines

As our Operations team tries to be more efficient with pharmacy preparation and decreasing TAT we are moving more and more products away from pharmacy compounding and towards ADC stock via Vial2Bag. Are any institutions providing safeguards/restrictions on high alert high risk medications being supplied in ADC's via vial2bag? For example calcium gluconate vial2bag? or bivalirudin vial2bag? Are you allowing those to be stocked in your ADCs? and if so, have you been successful in adding any safeguards to prevent errors ?
