This bill amends various sections of Florida Statutes to enhance the regulation of drugs, vaccines, and cosmetics that contain harmful chemicals. It expands the definition of "drug" to include food containing a vaccine or vaccine material and introduces a new definition for "vaccine or vaccine material." The bill also stipulates that food will be considered misbranded if it contains a vaccine without appropriate labeling. Furthermore, it prohibits the manufacture, sale, or distribution of cosmetics containing specific toxic chemicals, such as ortho-phthalates and PFAS, starting July 1, 2026, while allowing existing stock to be sold until July 1, 2027. The Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) is assigned the responsibility of identifying hazardous chemicals and making this information publicly accessible.

Additionally, the bill prohibits the use of fruits and vegetables as delivery mechanisms for mRNA vaccines and establishes disciplinary actions for non-compliance. It mandates the DBPR to adopt rules for implementing these regulations, including identifying chemicals that release formaldehyde and involving stakeholders in the rule-making process. The bill also updates legal references related to emergency medical reasons and revises the recordkeeping, storage, and handling requirements for prescription drug distributions. These changes aim to clarify and strengthen the regulatory framework for emergency medical situations and prescription drug distribution, with an effective date set for July 1, 2025.
