House Bill No. 907, introduced by Representative Miller, aims to provide civil and criminal immunity for the distribution or use of Naloxone and other opioid antagonists even after their labeled shelf-life end date has passed. The bill enacts a new section, R.S. 40:978.2.3, which states that individuals who prescribe, dispense, distribute, or administer these medications will not face liability solely based on the expiration of the shelf-life. Additionally, those acting in good faith to furnish or administer Naloxone to someone believed to be experiencing an opioid overdose will also be protected from legal repercussions, except in cases of gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Furthermore, the bill ensures that licensed healthcare practitioners will not face disciplinary actions from professional licensing boards for actions covered under this immunity. It also defines "shelf-life end date" in accordance with federal regulations and mandates that federally certified healthcare providers comply with federal laws regarding the use of expired medications. The bill is set to take effect upon the governor's signature or after the designated time for gubernatorial action has lapsed.
