What happens if a pharmacy's registration is not renewed on time?

If a pharmacy's registration is not renewed on time, the registration is considered expired, which can lead to revocation of the pharmacy's license. This means that the pharmacy would no longer be legally allowed to operate until the registration is renewed. In many jurisdictions, including Hawaii, operating without a valid registration can result in significant legal ramifications for both the pharmacy and its personnel. Therefore, it is crucial for pharmacies to be aware of their registration renewal dates and to submit their renewal applications in a timely manner to maintain compliance with state regulations.

The other options, while they may represent potential consequences of various regulatory violations, do not accurately describe the immediate outcome of failing to renew a pharmacy registration within the time frame set by regulatory bodies.
