Résumé Omnilex

The Administrative Tribunal upheld a three-month disciplinary suspension of a pharmacist. He had repeatedly dispensed prohibited preparations, including thyroid-hormone slimming capsules and combinations of substances whose association was forbidden, sometimes without prescription and outside any emergency situation. He also concealed the prescription register dedicated to those products so as to hinder investigation. The court held that these acts constituted serious improper professional conduct and justified the disciplinary measure.

Regeste Omnilex

LPS.126; disciplinary sanction against a pharmacist for improper professional conduct: repeated dispensing of prohibited medicinal preparations, dispensing without prescription and outside an emergency, and deliberate concealment of the relevant prescription register constitute serious professional misconduct. Where such conduct is repeated and obstructs supervisory inquiry, a temporary suspension from the profession is proportionate and may be upheld, even absent a specific patient harm showing, because the breach concerns core duties of the profession and the integrity of supervision.

LPS.126

Résumé

Le TA a confirmé les 3 mois de suspension d'un pharmacien auquel il était reproché d'avoir vendu des préparations prohibées (hormones tyroïdiennes), partiellement sans ordonnance médicale et sans qu'il y ait une situation d'urgence. Ce comportement a été qualifié d'agissement professionnel incorrect. Le pharmacien qui délivre à maintes reprises des préparations interdites, soit des gélules amaigrissantes contenant une hormone thyroïdienne (art. 1 al. 1 RMA) ainsi que des préparations contenant des substances dont l'association est interdite (art. 1 al. 2 RMA) et qui soustrait astucieusement à toute investigation un ordonnancier affecté uniquement aux préparations précitées, commet de graves manquements professionnels justifiant sa radiation du registre des pharmaciens pour une durée de 3 mois .
