Kentucky News: Internet Pharmacy Web Sites/Faxes
Published in the September 2007 Kentucky Board of Pharmacy Newsletter
The Board office has received many questions and concerns from pharmacies and pharmacists in Kentucky regarding the receipt of faxes and seeing questionable Internet pharmacy Web sites. Once the Board receives this information, it is determined whether or not the pharmacy is permitted by Kentucky. If the pharmacy and/or Web site is not licensed by the Board, then it is turned over to the Kentucky Bureau of Investigation (KBI). The KBI will follow up with an investigation, and through cooperation with carriers can, and does, seize packages sent by these pharmacies into Kentucky. Please continue to send the Board office any information regarding Internet pharmacies or faxes. If you have further questions, please contact the Board office.
