Texas Pharmacy Loses License Over Risky Drug Fills
Published Date: 4/14/2025
Notice
Summary
Mariste Pharmacy in Texas lost its DEA license because it kept filling risky prescriptions without checking for abuse and broke important drug storage and record rules. They didn’t ask for a hearing to defend themselves, so the suspension and revocation stand. This means Mariste can’t legally handle controlled drugs anymore, protecting public safety starting from May 2024.

DEA revokes Mariste Pharmacy registration
The Drug Enforcement Administration revoked Mariste Pharmacy's DEA Certificate of Registration No. FM2279431. The final Order revoking the registration is effective May 14, 2025, which means Mariste Pharmacy no longer holds a DEA registration to distribute or dispense controlled substances.
Immediate suspension issued May 20, 2024
On May 20, 2024, the DEA issued an Order to Show Cause and Immediate Suspension of Registration for Mariste Pharmacy under 21 U.S.C. 824(d), finding the continued registration could be an imminent danger to public health or safety. That suspension preceded the final revocation.
DEA denies pending and future Texas registrations
The Order also denies any pending applications of Mariste Pharmacy to renew or modify this registration and denies any other pending application for additional registration in Texas. This denial is part of the final action effective May 14, 2025.
