(a) After notice and hearing, whenever the Arkansas State Board of Pharmacy has found a licensee to have committed any act enumerated in ยง 20-64-508, the board shall have the power to impose a civil penalty and may order the license to be suspended until the penalty is paid.
(b) Before imposing any civil penalty, the board shall determine that the public health and welfare would not be impaired by the imposition of the penalty and that payment of the penalty will achieve the desired disciplinary purposes.
(c) No penalty imposed by the board shall exceed one thousand dollars ($1,000) per violation, nor shall the board impose a penalty on a licensee where the license has been revoked by the board for a violation.
(d) Each instance where a federal, state, or local law or regulation is violated shall constitute a separate violation.
(e) The power and authority of the board to impose penalties is not to be affected by any other civil or criminal proceeding concerning the same violation, nor shall the imposition of a penalty preclude the board from imposing other sanctions short of revocation.
