The state's investigation into Ahmad began last year, when pharmacists began complaining about the volume of controlled substances the doctor was prescribing: More than 700 prescriptions in five months, according to the license accusation.
All issued by one doctor who flew up from his home in Arkansas to see patients just a few days each month.
In November, local pharmacists alerted the board that Ahmad had been "prescribing large amounts of high strength controlled substances to Alaska patients with little or no history of pain management prescriptions,"
In one instance, Ahmad prescribed doses of methadone and oxycodone that were "at least ten times a reasonable starting dose."
