What states require you to have a pharmacist licensed in that state in order to ship there? I know the laws are changing a lot.

Pretty much all of them. You need to look at each state's laws individually.
Could you name the states that you had to take a test? I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing any law updates.
No. I don't work mail order but I've taken enough MPJEs to know you usually need a pharmacist licensed in that state to ship there. The onus is on you to research each state before shipping.Could you name the states that you had to take a test? I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing any law updates.
I just want to make sure I haven't missed any states. Any mail order pharmacists out there?

Did you take Florida's? How dificult was it?
There are 17 states now.
Could you please list the 17 states? Florida was one of the harder exams I've taken, but they don't require you to have a license to ship there.
Anyone know the 17 states? I have to sign up soon.
AL, AR, ID, NE, MA, MI, LA, VA, WV, TX, OK, MD, KY, TN, MS, OR, one more, I forget

In order to dispense medicinal drugs into Florida, the pharmacy and the pharmacist designated as the prescription department manager or equivalent must be licensed in the state of location.
That means the state where the pharmacy is located, not Florida.
