This bill proposes to amend the Arizona Revised Statutes by adding a new section, 32-1979.04, which would allow Ivermectin formulated for human use to be sold or purchased as an over-the-counter drug without the need for a prescription or consultation with a health professional. This change would create a new legal framework for the sale of Ivermectin, distinguishing it from current regulations that typically require a prescription for such medications.

Additionally, the bill defines "over-the-counter drug" to clarify that it refers to drugs that can be legally sold and purchased in Arizona without a prescription order. This insertion aims to provide clarity on the classification of Ivermectin under the law, ensuring that consumers understand their rights regarding its purchase. Overall, the bill seeks to simplify access to Ivermectin for consumers while updating the existing statutes to reflect this new provision.
