This bill would allow Kentuckians to buy ivermectin formulations approved for human use at a pharmacy without needing a doctor's prescription. Currently, a prescription is required to obtain this medication. The bill would change that requirement under Kentucky's controlled substances and drug laws. Who it may affect: Kentucky residents who use or are interested in accessing ivermectin for human use, and pharmacists or pharmacies that dispense it.
