Drug control commission accepts settlement over recordkeeping lapses in Connecticut pharmacist case
Summary
The commission approved a settlement in case 2025-1669 after staff described repeated recordkeeping and documentation lapses at a Connecticut pharmacy manager’s site; the proposed settlement requires a monetary payment and remedial steps (amount not specified).
The Connecticut Drug Control commission on a routine agenda vote accepted a settlement in case number 2025-1669 involving a Connecticut pharmacist who was investigated after a compliance inspection uncovered multiple documentation and recordkeeping failures.
Agency counsel told the commission that inspectors found missing written records, unsigned or incomplete signature logs, gaps in quality-assurance documentation, missing training and certification records, and incomplete reporting of controlled-substance losses. Counsel said a number of the issues overlapped with prior inspections at the same location and that some reported losses lacked adequate documentation.
"A number of issues were uncovered during this inspection," the agency attorney said, summarizing the alleged violations. The attorney told commissioners there was no concurrent agency case against the pharmacy itself in this investigation.
Commission staff recommended a settlement requiring a monetary payment and remedial conditions; the attorney said the settlement also included corrective actions and reporting obligations. The transcript does not specify the payment amount.
A commissioner moved to accept the settlement, the motion was seconded, and the commission approved the settlement by voice vote.
The commission record notes that staff offered education and follow-up for the pharmacy’s staff pharmacists and emphasized the importance of timely documentation and quality-assurance reviews. The board did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript; the motion passed on a voice vote.
