SUMMARY AS PASSED SENATE: (all summaries)

Controlled substances; nonresident pharmacies; penalties. Makes it a Class 1 misdemeanor for any person to manufacture, sell, give, distribute or possess with intent to manufacture, sell, give or distribute a Schedule VI controlled substance or imitation controlled substance in violation of the Drug Control Act. The bill requires a nonresident pharmacy to designate a Virginia-licensed pharmacist to be responsible for compliance with all provisions of the Drug Control Act. A nonresident pharmacy that dispenses more than 50 percent of its total prescription volume pursuant to an original prescription order received as a result of solicitation on the Internet, must disclose to the Pharmacy Board that it has received certain certifications. The bill also allows controlled substances that are illegally shipped to be seized by law enforcement or by an agent of the Board of Pharmacy. This bill is identical to HB 1147.
