Over-the-counter allergy medicine sale restrictions modified.

HF 2476 modifies Minnesota's restrictions on over-the-counter sales of products containing ephedrine or pseudoephedrine (commonly found in some allergy medications and cold remedies, but primarily regulated due to their use in methamphetamine production). The bill limits single sales to no more than 6 grams of these substances (by weight), requires sales to occur behind a counter with a licensed pharmacist, mandates ID checks showing date of birth, and requires written records of each sale to be kept for three years. It also prohibits sales to anyone under 18 and caps total purchases at 7.2 grams within 30 days. These changes directly affect pharmacies selling such products and customers purchasing them.
