Franklin Pharmacy: Was It a Manufacturing Plant

Pen N Sword blog has a detailed description of Franklin Pharmacy.  The blog begins with:

Travel south on Hwy 43 into Russellville and you may easily miss Franklin Pharmacy. It sits at the northern entrance to the small town, located just off the four-lane in a low-lying area not easily observed. A large billboard displays an arrow pointing downward to the two year old complex. Why such a strange location?
Franklin Pharmacy is not just a drug store, but also a manufacturing plant. Among their many compounded products is Optimal Pain Control or OPC, a pain relief cream that is individually tailored to each patient and that has made what locals call a large fortune for owner Tim Aaron. Connected to the drug store is a large metal building where hundreds of workers produce this golden goose, or at least did until last week.
