This permit, issued in the name of the community pharmacy, is available to a community pharmacy that is open to the general public and purchases prescription drugs at fair market prices. It authorizes a retail pharmacy to wholesale approved prescription drugs to practitioners licensed in Florida or to other retail pharmacies. Recipients must be located in Florida. If wholesale activity exceeds this amount, a prescription drug wholesaler permit is required. A permit is needed for each location selling into Florida and each location distributing into Florida.
Permits are name and address specific.
You can distribute already filled and fully labeled cylinders of medical gases to authorized recipients. You cannot sell to a patient with this permit. If you fill cylinders or put additional labeling on the cylinder, you need a compressed medical gases manufacturing permit. You are required to get this permit even if you are only brokering medical gases. Brokering medical gases occurs if you do not take possession of the medical gases, someone else delivers it to the authorized recipient, but you pay the company delivering the gas and bill an authorized recipient for it.
