Provides that among the conditions, the dialysate is comprised of dextrose or icodextrin and that the dialysate or devices are delivered only upon receipt of a physician's prescription by a licensed pharmacy in which the prescription is processed in accordance with provisions set forth in the Act, and the transmittal of an order from the licensed pharmacy to the manufacturer or the manufacturer's agent (rather than the dialysate, drugs, or devices are delivered only by the manufacturer or the manufacturer's agent and only upon receipt of a physician's order). Provides that the exemption does not include any other drugs for peritoneal dialysis, except dialysate comprised of dextrose or icodextrin. Provides that all records of sales and distributions of dialysate to patients made pursuant to the provisions must be retained in accordance with provisions concerning record retention in the Act.
