Many pharmacies violate laws and avoid punishment

Numerous drug manufacturers violate laws. But just some of them are punished properly. Many drug manufacturers avoid harsh sanctions without significant efforts. But just when serious scandals are caused by illicit actions of drug manufacturers, they are sentenced to appropriate sanctions. For example, anyone is aware of the meningitis outbreak which has spread across the country because of tainted steroids produced by a Massachusetts compounding pharmacy. Of course, owners and officers of the company will be sanctioned harshly. But when illicit operations of drug manufacturers don’t cause such serious problems, they go on with their business successfully.
The media reports about illicit actions connected with anabolic steroids, painkillers and other prescription medicines daily. But you may see that pharmaceutical companies get just insignificant sentencing for illicit sale of steroids and other doping products. So, sportspersons and bodybuilders have free access to doping products. They purchase anabolic steroids and other related drugs from compounding centers and take them for athletic needs. Furthermore, several compounding pharmacies provide fake prescriptions for anabolic steroids. Corrupt physicians supply customers of pharmacies with prescriptions which are given without proper evaluation of customers’ individual conditions.
Drug manufacturers are responsible not only for illegal sale of anabolic-androgenic steroids. Certain pharmaceutical companies manufacture preparations in unsterile conditions. As a result, thousands persons get contaminated products and suffer from serious complications, applying  these drugs. Certain persons even die from contamination resulted from usage of tainted medications. As you are probably informed, 39 individuals died because of fungal meningitis resulted from contaminated methylprednisolone acetate injections.
The recent contamination with fungal meningitis should influence on decisions of appropriate authorities. Criminal sanctions should take place. Otherwise, health of thousands individuals is in a great danger. Prescription drugs must be sold only under real prescriptions. All medications must be manufactured in sterile conditions. If pharmaceutical companies don’t obey all laws, they must be punished. They must not be permitted to continue with business, if they violate laws. Forfeiture of licenses should be accompanied by other serious sanctions.
