Amazon refuses to use the pharmacy licenses it obtained from Tennessee and Indiana to sell prescription drugs. Instead, they promise to sell medical supplies and devices. What do you think?

With the growing emergence of healthcare technology, it's interesting to see how companies such as Amazon are entering and interacting with this space. One of my favorite aspects about Amazon is how it offers more reasonable prices and it's also a lot more convenient. It would be interesting if Amazon sold prescription drugs, though it would definitely change the current market and channel set up.
How do you think Amazon would change the pharmaceutical market if they began selling prescription drugs?
