A major US drug distributor has lost its license after failing to report suspicious orders of painkillers during the opioid crisis.
The US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has revoked the license of Morris & Dickson Co., one of the largest drug distributors in the country, for its failure to report suspicious orders of highly addictive opioids between 2014 and 2018.
The action follows an investigation which revealed that the DEA allowed the company to continue shipping drugs for nearly four years after a judge recommended severe penalties.
