An Act relating to the sale of weight-loss drugs and muscle-building supplements to minors; and relating to the regulation of weight-loss drugs and muscle-building supplements by municipalities.
HB 236 prohibits the sale of weight-loss drugs and muscle-building supplements to minors in Alaska. Sellers must verify buyers are 18 or older through government ID in person, age verification services for online orders, or by confirming a prescription for minors. An exception allows in-person sales if sellers reasonably believe buyers appear 25 or older. The bill sets fines of $250 for first violations and $350 for subsequent violations, while reserving regulation authority to the state and preventing municipalities from enacting local rules.
