Existing law requires Ivermectin to be dispensed by a pharmacist only on the prescription of a licensed physician. This bill would permit a physician, a physician assistant, or a certified registered nurse practitioner to give a pharmacist a standing order that has been approved by the State Board of Pharmacy to dispense Ivermectin to individuals without a prescription. The standing order would contain a protocol providing the pharmacist with guidelines for providing Ivermectin to individuals who request it. This bill would prohibit health care providers and pharmacists from participating in any program or receiving any benefit that would induce them to encourage patients or the public to use Ivermectin. This bill would also prohibit health care providers qualified to give a standing order and pharmacists who follow a standing order from being subject to disciplinary action from the respective governing licensing board as a result of dispensing Ivermectin.
