  3. Governor Nixon signs law on tuberculosis screening

          JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - Gov. Jay Nixon has signed legislation requiring all Missouri colleges and universities to develop screening programs for tuberculosis.  The bill provides for targeted testing to identify those at high risk for latent infection and for developing the disease. It also would determine those who would benefit from treatment.  The measure was one of several signed by the governor Wednesday.  Another bill will let pharmacists dispense a small, emergency dose of prescription medicine if the prescribing doctor is unavailable. The pharmacist must believe that depriving a patient of the medication would cause health problems, and the medication cannot be a controlled substance.   Other legislation signed Wednesday includes a designation of May as "Motorcycle Awareness Month" in Missouri.

  5. DEA settles Walgreens painkiller case for $80M

          MIAMI (AP) - The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration has reached an $80 million civil settlement with the Walgreens pharmacy chain over violations of rules governing the distribution of powerful prescription painkillers.   DEA officials said Tuesday that Walgreens committed numerous record-keeping and dispensing violations of the Controlled Substances Act. That allowed drugs such as oxycodone to be improperly sold to abusers and for illegal sales on the black market.  Walgreens is the nation's largest pharmacy chain with more than 8,000 stores. A spokesman at the Deerfield, Ill.-based company said a statement would be issued later.  Florida has been a major East Coast source of highly addictive painkillers. An ongoing crackdown in recent years including numerous arrests has reduced the number of illegal "pill mills" operating in the state.
