Mindful of the rush
by some politicians to hitch a ride on the cross-border prescription
drug express and the law be damned, the National Association
of Boards of Pharmacy has joined its Canadian counterpart
to develop a framework to bring some order to the chaos that
is the Canadian Rx drug trade.
A system similar to
the one used by state pharmacy boards to regulate out-of-state
pharmacies is under discussion by NABP and Canada's National
Association of Pharmacy Regulatory Authorities (NAPRA), said
Carmen Catizone, NABP executive director. "If a pharmacy in
Canada was going to provide drugs to the United States, there
could be U.S. registration or licensure and cooperation in
terms of sharing information between the province [where the
pharmacy is located] and the state," he said. "We're trying
to get all the provinces to meet with NABP representatives
and see how we can make this work."
