On January 17, 2025, the U.S. Department of Justice announced it filed a lawsuit against the Company alleging Walgreens dispensed millions of unlawful prescriptions in violation of the Controlled Substances Act and then sought reimbursement for many of these prescriptions from various federal health care programs in violation the False Claims Act. According to the government’s complaint, Walgreens pharmacists filled millions of controlled substance prescriptions with clear red flags that indicated the prescriptions were highly likely to be unlawful, and that Walgreens systematically pressured its pharmacists to fill prescriptions, including controlled substance prescriptions, without taking the time needed to confirm their validity. These practices allowed millions of opioid pills and other controlled substances to flow illegally out of Walgreens stores. On this news, the price of Walgreens common stock declined as much as 11% in after-hours trading.
