Ivermectin; authorize sale and purchase of as over-the-counter medication.

SB 2541 would have allowed Mississippi residents to buy ivermectin (formulated for human use) without a doctor's prescription or consultation. It directly affected consumers seeking this medication for personal use, removing the current requirement for a prescription. The bill’s key provision exempted ivermectin from prescription requirements for human use, treating it as an over-the-counter medication. However, the bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and never became law.
