Duluth pharmacy ordered closed for fraudulent operation

State officials have closed a pharmacy in Duluth based on evidence it had filled a "significant number of fraudulent prescriptions". The Georgia Drugs and Narcotics Agency has closed the Sante Fe Pharmacy, following an order of Summary of Suspension by the Georgia State Board of Pharmacy. The Board found evidence the Duluth pharmacy had fired its pharmacist in February, did not employ another pharmacist, and had no pharmacist in charge--all in violation of Georgia law.
