Wedgewood Village Pharmacy, License #264477.
Licensee is not, nor has it ever been licensed as a
drug wholesaler by the Board. Licensee shipped
drugs to licensed veterinarians in Minnesota without
patient-specific prescriptions. However, beginning
January 7, 2013, licensee began dispensing drugs only
pursuant to patient-specific prescriptions. Licensee
asserted that it was acting on a good-faith interpretation
of Minnesota law, specifically Minnesota Statutes
§151.01, Subdivision 30 (2012). The Board asserts
that Minnesota law prohibited licensee from shipping
drugs for office use without being licensed as a
wholesaler. Licensee, for purposes of settlement of the
matter, and for no other purposes civil, administrative,
or criminal, agreed that the Board could impose
discipline in the form of a reprimand and a $10,000
civil penalty.
