Attorney General: Rite Aid Dispensed Tens of Thousands of Pills Illegally
From the article:
That is just one case in a long string of questionable purchases of prescription drugs revealed in a 41-page complaint that Attorney General Kamala Harris filed this past March against the pharmacy at 500 S. Broadway and its then-pharmacist-in-charge, Anne Chung. The complaint alleges that the store has illegally dispensed tens of thousands of painkillers, anti-anxiety medication and other controlled substances, as well as subverted an investigation by the state Board of Pharmacy. It accuses Chung and Rite Aid of unprofessional conduct, gross immorality, incompetence, gross negligence and the “clearly excessive furnishing” of controlled substances between 2009 and 2012.

If I saw an INSPECT report like that, I would have questioned several of those and not filled as too soon and I’m sure they were all cash sales so they wouldn’t show up as 3rd party rejects.They should have popped up as a DUR alert on her computer. Sounds like she never checked the state reports, but we only have one side of the story….interested in how the other side defends this….or settles out,,,,
