Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Pharmacy Practice Act. In provisions exempting the practice of specified professionals and their prescribing of such drugs, medicines, or poisons as may seem appropriate to the professionals, provides that this exemption is without regard to whether such drugs, medicines, or poisons are not typically prescribed by such licensed individuals or by licensed individuals in a same or similar specialty or are self-prescribed, with the exception of controlled substances. Provides that a licensee does not act in good faith when the licensee refuses to compound, fill, or dispense prescriptions of physicians licensed to practice medicine in all its branches solely because the prescriptions are not typically issued by that physician or by physicians in the same or similar specialty or are self-prescribed, with the exception of controlled substances. Provides that it is a violation of specified provisions for any prescriber or dispenser to adopt a contrary policy. Effective immediately.
