AI-generated summary. We recommend consulting the bill text for important decisions.

Under current Utah law, ivermectin — an FDA-approved anti-parasitic drug — requires a prescription to be dispensed by a pharmacy. This bill allows licensed pharmacists and pharmacies to sell and dispense ivermectin to anyone without a prescription and without requiring the customer to first consult a doctor or any other health care provider, explicitly stating that doing so is not unlawful or unprofessional conduct. Utahns would be able to walk into a pharmacy and purchase ivermectin the same way they buy over-the-counter medications, bypassing the standard process of obtaining a prescription from a licensed medical provider.
