Bill > HB2007

This bill amends Arizona state law to allow ivermectin, a medication traditionally used to treat parasitic infections, to be sold and purchased over-the-counter (OTC) without requiring a prescription from a healthcare professional. Specifically, the bill creates a new section in Arizona's pharmacy regulations that permits human-formulated ivermectin to be legally sold directly to consumers without the typical requirement of consulting a doctor or obtaining a prescription. The bill also provides a definition of "over-the-counter drug" as a medication that can be legally sold and purchased in the state without a prescription order. This proposed change would make ivermectin more easily accessible to consumers, potentially bypassing traditional medical gatekeeping processes for obtaining the medication.
