Franklin Pharmacy Suspending Its Compounding Operation in Russellville: It Employed Close ot 200 People

Closing of compounding center to affect many

Published 6:00am Saturday, August 18, 2012
When the state unemployment numbers were released Friday, Franklin County’s jobless claims for July held steady at 9.7 percent, just slightly above the 9.6 percent reported in June.
The county’s July rate represents 1,315 individuals, but that number is certain to rise on the heels of Thursday’s announcement that Franklin Pharmacy would be suspending its compounding operation in Russellville.
Though company officials have not commented publicly, several employees of the pharmacy confirmed Friday that they were sent home Thursday and told that the compounding operation would be closed. Close to 200 people were employed there and it is uncertain how many will remain.
The announcement was made one week after federal and state agencies raided Franklin Pharmacy and two others, Russellville Pharmacy and Sheffield Pharmacy.

My order was taken after the raid, payment settled and I did not receive the compound. Hopefully someone will see this and respond. Bruce regions-777-@-gmail.-com (No dashes in actual address)
