The bill proposes to amend Arkansas law to allow the sale of ivermectin for human use without the need for a prescription or consultation with a healthcare professional. Specifically, it introduces a new section to the Arkansas Code, designated as 20-7-147, which defines "over-the-counter medication" and establishes that ivermectin suitable for human use can be sold as such in the state.

This legislation aims to provide easier access to ivermectin by permitting its sale without the traditional medical oversight typically required for prescription medications. The bill emphasizes that, despite any existing laws, individuals will be able to purchase ivermectin over-the-counter, thereby streamlining the process for obtaining this medication.
