House BillBobbi Andera(R)Introduced Jan 15, 2026Last action Feb 5, 2026

This bill allows pharmacists to dispense the drugs ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine to adults without a patient-specific prescription, as long as they follow a written protocol created by a physician that includes risk screening and information about proper use and side effects. The bill also protects both physicians and pharmacists from lawsuits and disciplinary action when they follow the protocol in good faith, unless their actions involve gross negligence or willful misconduct.
