For high risk CSP, what factor contributes to its classification?

<3 sterile ingredients used
Using non-sterile ingredients or equipment
Withdrawal of multiple doses of a sterile product
12-hour BUD in non-clean room environments

The correct answer is: Using non-sterile ingredients or equipment

CSPs with a higher risk are more likely to cause harm to a patient if they are contaminated. Using non-sterile ingredients or equipment increases the risk of contamination in a CSP, thus contributing to its classification as high risk. Options A and D, while they pertain to the use of sterile ingredients and environments, do not directly address the potential for contamination from non-sterile components. Option C also does not address the use of non-sterile ingredients or equipment, and instead focuses on the withdrawal of multiple doses, which may not necessarily increase the risk of contamination in a CSP.
