Question juridique clé
Whether the appellant may distribute unapproved, non-ready-to-use medicinal products to pharmacies and drugstores holding only retail authorization.
Solution extraite
No. A wholesale license does not permit delivery of such products to retail outlets that lack the additional manufacturing authorization required for further processing and later supply.
Motifs extraits
For unapproved products, further manufacturing is still required before downstream dispensing. Under the rules of good wholesale practice, the wholesaler must verify that the recipient is authorized not only to retail but also to manufacture the products. Delivering to retail-only outlets would circumvent the statutory authorization system.
