The FDA has decided that not only were the operations of New Jersey-based Med Prep Consulting unsterile, they were illegal.
The large compounding pharmacy, its owner Gerald Tighe and pharmacist-in-charge Stephen Kalinoski have been named in a 37-count indictment that accuses them of intentionally defrauding the FDA and the hospitals the company sold to by selling drugs it claimed were prepared in safe conditions when in fact, it cut corners to cut costs.
"As detailed in the indictment, Med Prep and its two most senior executives engaged in a disturbing pattern of dangerous practices in order to save money and line their pockets," U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch said in a statement.
