Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, the sale, purchase, or trade of a prescription drug by a pharmacy to other pharmacies is permissible if the total dollar volume of such sales, purchases, or trades are in compliance with the rules of the board and do not exceed five percent of the pharmacy's total annual prescription drug sales.
