The Show Cause Order proposed to revoke Respondent’s pharmacy registration and to deny any pending applications for renewal or modification of its registration on the ground that Respondent’s continued registration would be inconsistent with the public interest. See 21 U.S.C. 823(f) & 824(a). The Show Cause Order also immediately suspended Respondent’s registration based on my preliminary finding that Respondent’s continued registration constitutes ‘‘an imminent danger to public health and safety because of the substantial likelihood that [Respondent would] continue to divert controlled substances to drug abusers.’’ Show Cause Order at 11; see also 21 U.S.C. 824(d). The Order further notified Respondent of its right to a hearing. See Show Cause Order at 12. The Show Cause Order specifically alleged that Respondent was purchasing enormous amounts of hydrocodone products, a Schedule III controlled substance, and that its purchases greatly exceeded the quantities of the same drug that were bought by other retail pharmacies in the same area. For example, the Show Cause Order alleged that from December 31, 2003, through February 2, 2005, Respondent purchased 1,624,000 dosage units of Hydrocodone 10/650. Id. at 8. The Order alleged that the next largest pharmacy purchaser bought 79,100 units in the same time period. Id. The Order also alleged that during the year 2004, Respondent was the fifth largest purchaser of hydrocodone products in the State of Louisiana. Id. at 3.
