CVS pays $78m fine in meth case
CVS Caremark has agreed to pay $77.6m (£48.5m) to settle an investigation that its drugstores allowed widespread sales of cough medicines used to manufacture the illegal stimulant methamphetamine. CVS Pharmacy, a subsidiary, admitted it sold pseudoephedrine to criminals who used it to make meth, the US Attorney in Los Angeles said yesterday.
