Federal Drug Enforcement Administration agents raided the Hospital Discount Pharmacy in downtown Newnan on Friday.
Three other pharmacies, but not in Coweta County, also were raided, authorities said.
Major Jimmy Yarbrough with the Coweta County Sheriff's Office said a "seizure was made" at the Newnan pharmacy, but referred other questions to the DEA. A DEA spokesman did not return messages left at the agency's Atlanta office on Monday.
Hospital Discount Pharmacy is located at 98 Jackson St.
