Members of Congress investigating shortages of crucial drugs are targeting nearly two dozen fake pharmacies allegedly set up solely to buy and resell the drugs at huge markups.

Two senators and one U.S. representative on Wednesday sent letters to three individuals believed to have obtained licenses to operate both a pharmacy and a prescription drug wholesale business in a "shell game" -- to make money by taking advantage of the drug shortage crisis that's disrupting hospital and other patient care. The letters request detailed information by April 11 about the businesses and their purchases and resale of cancer and other lifesaving drugs.

U.S. lawmakers: Fake pharmacies price gouging
 
Yay! glad to know SOMEONE cares about our pockets...and well being.
 
"two dozen fake pharmacies" nasty!

may they sock it to them and some real justice served!
 
members of congress passed a law to benefit their own pockets by making it legal for themselves to buy stock in a drug before it is released to the public by big pharma. Insider trading by any other definition. They do not care about our pockets or our health. Lipitor is the most profitable drug in the world - in the billions and what a scam.
