From the article:
Allergychoices was ordered to forfeit $1,000 and pay $3,500 in costs, and Kachel was ordered to pay $100 in costs, according to the pharmacy board’s Feb. 13 order.
Allergychoices is a retail pharmacy spinoff of Allergy Associates of La Crosse, also in Onalaska, that is noted for its liquid sublingual immunotherapy drops.
The pharmacy board alleged improper labeling for not listing concentrations of ingredients in each prescription, which the company has agreed to do under the order.
The state also faulted Allergychoices for delivering initial 90-day supplies of medications to the prescribing doctors’ offices instead of to the patients’ homes. The company did that so the doctors could observe the first administration of the medicine, the state board said.
Looks like the oversight of compounding pharmacies is on the upswing.. and this may be a indication of how BOP’s are going to pay for it.. Find “i’s” that aren’t dotted and “t’s” that are not crossed and fine the crap out of the pharmacy/pharmacist. IMO.. these “infractions” really put the public’s health/safety at risk … NOT!
