SB 1275 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Permits over-the-counter purchase of ivermectin and hydroxycholorquine tablets without a prescription

SB 1275 would allow consumers to purchase ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine tablets directly from pharmacies without needing a doctor's prescription. This change would directly affect patients seeking these medications for approved uses (like treating certain parasitic infections or autoimmune conditions) and pharmacies selling them. The key provision removes the current requirement for a prescription, making these specific medications available over-the-counter.
