B. "Manufacturer of prescription drugs" or "manufacturer" means a manufacturer of prescription drugs or biological products
or an affiliate of the manufacturer or a labeler that receives prescription drugs or biological products from a manufacturer
or wholesaler and repackages those drugs or biological products for later retail sale and that has a labeler code from the
federal Food and Drug Administration under 21 Code of Federal Regulations, 2027.20 (1999).
