This bill proposes an amendment to the Code of West Virginia by adding a new section, 60A-2-204a, which specifically addresses the sale, distribution, and possession of ivermectin. The legislation allows for ivermectin to be sold and dispensed over the counter by pharmacists or pharmacies without the need for a prescription.
The intent of the bill is to facilitate easier access to ivermectin for individuals, removing the prescription requirement that currently exists. This change aims to enhance the availability of the medication for those who may need it.
