Walgreen Florida Facility Barred From Shipping Oxycodone - Bloomberg:

"Walgreen Co. (WAG) was blocked from shipping controlled substances from a distribution center in Jupiter, Florida, after a U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration probe into the sales of painkiller oxycodone found the facility posed a threat to public safety.

The Walgreen center was served today by the DEA with an immediate suspension order that bars it from handling controlled substances including oxycodone and hydrocodone, pending administrative proceedings by the agency, according to an agency statement. The Jupiter facility, one of a dozen owned and operated by Walgreen, has been the single largest distributor of oxycodone products in Florida since 2009, the DEA said."

. . . Earlier this week, DEA Administrator Michele Leonhart ordered that the controlled substance licenses for two CVS Caremark Corp. (CVS) pharmacies in Sanford, Florida be permanently revoked.
