What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under this bill, a person who purchases from a pharmacy or pharmacist more than 7.5 grams of pseudoephedrine contained in a pseudoephedrine product within a 30-day period is guilty of a misdemeanor. The criminal penalty imposed under the bill does not apply to a physician, dentist, veterinarian, or pharmacist.
Under current law, there is no criminal penalty imposed for making such a purchase from a pharmacy or pharmacist, but if a person other than a physician, dentist, veterinarian, or pharmacist makes such a purchase from a source other than a pharmacy or pharmacist, he or she is guilty of a Class I felony. Also under current law, a person who distributes more than 7.5 grams of pseudoephedrine contained in a pseudoephedrine product within a 30-day period to a person, other than a physician, dentist, veterinarian, or pharmacist, without a valid prescription is guilty of a Class I felony.
