A Roanoke Pharmacist has been disciplined by a state Board of Pharmacy committee.
Tommie Jo Nichols was reprimanded, put on probation for three years, and fined 12-thousand dollars.
According to board documents, Nichols filled internet prescriptions for patients she had never seen, written by doctors in other states who never saw the patients either.
Nichols worked in 1999 for a business started by her ex-husband- Bob Patane- who is not a pharmacist.
She says she requested guidelines from the Virginia Board of Pharmacy about the legality of filling Internet-derived prescriptions but never got clear guidance.
