Google Inc. is being investigated by U.S. regulators including the Food and Drug Administration over whether it knowingly accepted advertisements from online pharmacies that may violate the law, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.
The person declined to be named because the inquiry hasn’t been made public. Google, based in Mountain View, California, said earlier this week that it had set aside $500 million for the resolution of an investigation of its ad business.
