Prescription Drug Crimes

More and more, we hear about prescription drug abuse and arrests in Florida. People can get non-prescribed drugs in a variety of ways:

1. Sharing of drugs with friends and family.

2. Theft from pharmacies and doctor offices.

3. Theft of prescription pads

4. Doctor-shopping, which is when a person goes from doctor to doctor with the same "ailment" in order to get a prescription for their drug of choice.

5. Internet distribution

If you have been accused of possessing prescription drugs, prescription drug fraud, or doctor-shopping in Northeast Florida, contact our Jacksonville Drug Attorneys at (904) 634-0900 to discuss your rights.
