Walmart (NYSE:WMT) Inc and CVS Health Corp (NYSE:CVS) announced on Wednesday that they will cease processing restricted drug prescriptions written by telehealth firms Cerebral Inc and Done Health.


Cerebral and Done are well-known for treating ADHD patients with stimulants like Adderall.


Walmart told Reuters that the decision was taken following an audit and compliance procedure.


CVS announced on May 26 that it will no longer accept restricted drug prescriptions provided by the startups, as a consequence of an investigation it did on the telehealth companies and its inability to "resolve issues we have with Cerebral and Done Health."


The Wall Street Journal was the first to announce the news early on Wednesday.


Cerebral and Done declined to comment when contacted by Reuters.


Federal prosecutors reportedly filed a subpoena to Cerebral earlier this month as part of a probe into suspected breaches of the Controlled Substances Act.


The WSJ was the first to publish the news on Wednesday.
