patient because the manner of storage and chances for adulteration/tampering
are unknowns that the pharmacist cannot determine and therefore not safely
dispense. In addition there are issues for crediting unused medications and
informing patients that they are receiving medications that have been already
dispensed to and returned by another patient. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

font-family:Geneva;color:black'>In <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Texas</st1:place></st1:State>
and most states, I believe it's illegal accept unused and expired medicines
from customers and reuse the medicines. In certain healthcare setting,
nursing homes, hospice, and long-term care facilities, transfer of
medicine from one patient to another may be permitted only under the
supervision of the attending physicians for both patients. The pharmacist
doesn't get involved with this decision. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=1 color=black face=Geneva><span style='font-size:9.0pt;
font-family:Geneva;color:black'>Generally, it is considered a possible issue of
"standard care" when medicine is accepted from one patient and given
to another. It is illegal to repackage or redistribut medicines beyond
their expiry date for any reason. For safety, most retail pharmacies and
clinics will not recycle and reuse donated medicines from a
customer. And we all know about the DEA regs on narcotics and first
registrants. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=1 color=black face=Geneva><span style='font-size:9.0pt;
font-family:Geneva;color:black'>Retails pharmacies based on our survey have
been accepting unwanted meds for some time, but this practice is not
acknowledged or institutionalized widely. In TX, some Walgreens
would quietly take customers' unused and expired meds (UEMs) and properly
dispose of them as "waste". Recently, a CVS in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Houston</st1:place></st1:City> was discovered to repackage and sale
expired meds to customers.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=1 color=black face=Geneva><span style='font-size:9.0pt;
font-family:Geneva;color:black'>The United Nations WHO strictly prohibits in
its Guideline for Donation of Drugs any medicines from individuals for safety
reasons. Donation of drugs can be effective and highly useful in certain
circumstances, but WHO only reccomends direct donation from healthcare
institutions and drug manufacturers.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size=1 color=black face=Geneva><span style='font-size:9.0pt;
font-family:Geneva;color:black'>Here's another interesting whistleblower story
at the pharmacy. many of you may remember this case in <st1:City
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">kansas city</st1:place></st1:City>: A $2.2
billion verdict was "dispensed" through the civil courts.
A popular pharmacist was caught diluting chemo drugs for thousands of cancer
patients. The whistleblower was an FBI agent who happened
to have Pharm.D.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
