Orange Sheriff Says "Pill Mills" Crackdown is Working Aug. 05, 2011 | WMFE - State lawmakers passed some tough new laws during the spring legislative session cracking down on rogue pain management clinics, often called "Pill Mills." The new rules include a statewide database to track prescription drugs and discourage the practice of "doctor shopping" -- that's when addicts and drug dealers visit numerous doctors and clinics to obtain multiple prescriptions for powerful and highly addictive pain medications.
