Nellis Air Force Base Pharmacy (NAFBP) notified the state Board of Pharmacy that all people not located on the base, mostly veterans and their family members, temporarily will not be able to pick up prescriptions at the Base. Since Nevada law requires that these prescriptions be transferred and filled, approximately 16,000 refills per month, must be transferred to Nevada retail pharmacies. NACDS members are working with NAFBP staff to facilitate these transfers. To assist with the transfers and refills, please refer to NAC 639.713 – 639.7145 (and 21 CFR § 1306.25 where applicable) and NRS 639.2394.
