The AAJ reported today that CVS is being sued by the Connecticut Attorney General for selling expired over-the-counter medications. An investigation revealed 20 or more stores selling such products in the state. The investigation showed that half of all stores investigated were selling the expired medication or other products. Among the products being sold were cough and allergy medications, dairy products, and baby formula. Some of the stores had already been found in the past to have done the same thing. I believe it would be easy enough for CVS to track these medications with the use of simple computer applications and other devices.
