Call with Charlotte Smith of Pharmecology: Pharmaceutical Discussion

Participants: Charlotte Smith, Lisa Lauer, Patricia Mercer, Meg McCarthy

Call date: February 13, 2006

Purpose: To discuss the reverse distribution industry.

Notes: Many pharmaceutical manufacturers have take-back/credit programs
for outdated and/or unused drugs. Reverse distributors provide a service
to retailers by keeping track of drug manufacturers’ credit programs. 
 Thus, reverse distributors determine which outdated/unused drugs are
creditable and which are not.
