Bill > H0010

This bill amends, adds to, and repeals existing law to revise and modernize the Pharmacy Practice Act, including by providing for a multistate pharmacy license. Key provisions of the bill include: - Allowing the Board of Pharmacy to enter into mutual recognition agreements with other states to permit multistate practice of pharmacy, where pharmacists, interns, and technicians licensed in another state can practice pharmacy in or into Idaho without an Idaho license, as long as certain requirements are met. - Granting the Board authority to impose penalties on multistate licensees for disciplinary violations, while leaving license revocation or suspension to the state that issued the original license. - Updating provisions related to drug outlet registration and licensure, including allowing for the donation of certain drugs by animal owners to veterinarians or veterinary facilities. - Repealing sections related to the label requirements for prescription drugs and the notification requirements when substituting epilepsy or seizure medications. Overall, the bill aims to modernize and streamline the regulation of pharmacy practice in Idaho, including by facilitating multistate licensure and simplifying some administrative requirements.
