Walmart is suing the federal government in a preemptive strike against claims the retailer fueled the opioid crisis by filling suspicious prescriptions

Walmart is suing the DOJ and DEA, asking a federal court to clarify what legal authority its pharmacists have to refuse to fill opioid prescriptions.

Walmart is currently facing lawsuits from several states and counties over its role as an opioid distributor and pharmacy.

The dispute concerns Walmart's role as both a pharmacy and prescription drug distributor. In the wake of the opioid crisis, pharmacies have faced scrutiny and legal action for what critics say was a failure to detect and refusal to fill suspicious, high-volume opioid prescriptions.
