To report the incidence of pharmacy-related burglaries and robberies and characteristics of pharmacies where such crimes have occurred using recent data from Rx Pattern Analysis Tracking Robberies & Other Losses (RxPATROL), a national Web-based information clearinghouse on pharmacy-related theft of prescription medications and over-the-counter products.

Number of pharmacy theft reports received; incident type, date, and location; point of entry; and pharmacy security features.
Between 2005 and 2006, 202 pharmacy burglary and 299 pharmacy robbery reports from 45 different states were filed with RxPATROL. More than 70% of pharmacies reporting such crimes lacked a security camera. Among those reporting a burglary, 60% lacked dead bolt locks, a solid exterior door, a motion detector device, or a safe or vault for storage of controlled substances. Burglars most often obtained access to the pharmacy via the front door.
RxPATROL is a Web-based tool that can assist pharmacies and law enforcement in collaborating more effectively to combat and prevent pharmacy-related crimes.

在 2005 年至 2006 年间，RxPATROL 收到了来自 45 个不同州的 202 起药店盗窃案和 299 起药店抢劫案报告。超过 70%报告此类犯罪的药店没有安全摄像头。在报告盗窃案的药店中，60%没有暗锁、实心外门、运动探测器装置或用于存放受控物质的保险箱或保险库。窃贼最常通过前门进入药店。
RxPATROL 是一个基于网络的工具，可以帮助药店和执法部门更有效地合作，打击和预防与药店相关的犯罪。
