What Happened
During an incoming inventory, a responsible person observed the security control seal on two 100-count bottles of oxycodone/acetaminophen 10/325 mg tablets, a Schedule II controlled substance.
Two hundred tablets had been removed and replaced with acetaminophen 325 mg tablets. The loss was not reported to the Board. The Board found violations and imposed a $5,000 monetary penalty.

Why It Matters for Diversion Programs
This entry comes from a primary source rather than a federal enforcement release, and it is recorded as reported: two 100-count bottles had 200 tablets removed and replaced with acetaminophen 325 mg tablets; the loss was not reported to the Board. Board and news records are a lagging indicator - by the time a licensing authority or a reporter learns of a diversion, the diversion was normally detected internally first, which makes each entry a signal that inventory reconciliation, waste observation or dispensing oversight failed earlier.
