Relating to the renewal of a license to practice pharmacy.
HB 4335 amends Texas Occupations Code Section 559.003(e) to clarify that the Texas Board of Pharmacy may refuse to renew a pharmacy license if the applicant holds a suspended, revoked, or canceled license in another state. The bill directly affects pharmacists seeking license renewal who have disciplinary actions against them in another state. It specifies that this rule applies only to licenses expiring on or after September 1, 2025, with older licenses governed by prior law. The change streamlines the renewal process by giving the board explicit authority to deny renewal based on out-of-state disciplinary history.
