A Hudson, Ohio, doctor has been sentenced to more than two years in prison for issuing prescriptions for a drug while receiving kickbacks from the pharmaceutical company that manufacturers it, according to Yahoo News.

Dr. Deepak Raheja, 66, was sentenced 30 months in prison and ordered to help pay $2,163,995 and a $50,000 fine for prescribing the drug Nuedexta to patients who didn’t need it.

The drug treats pseudobulbar affect, a resulting condition from brain or neurological injuries that causes sudden and frequent bouts of laughter or crying.

Raheja, who had his medical license revoked, issued 10,088 prescriptions of the drug in approximately five years, from October 2011 to April 2016. This amounts to approximately 180 prescriptions of Nuedexta issued per month by Raheja.
