SB 221
An Act relating to the sale and purchasing of products containing
pseudoephedrine or ephedrine, and providing penalties.
This bill attempts to strike a balance between the legitimate use of products
containing pseudoephedrine or ephedrine and the need to enhance public safety by
curtailing ready access to the essential ingredients used in the manufacturing
of methamphetamine. The bill prohibits large volume purchases, deters theft by
restricting physical access to the most desirable products used in manufacturing
methamphetamine while preserving access to these products by legitimate users in
our rural and frontier areas. The bill does not place an undue burden on the
retailers of our state. It:
● Places a two package limit in a single transaction on products containing
pseudoephedrine or ephedrine;
● Restricts products in tablet form containing pseudoephedrine as the sole
active ingredient to placement behind the counter or in a locked cabinet unless
an anti-theft device system is utilized (limited number of products including
Sudafed, Triaminic, Dimetapp);
● Requires liquids, liquid or gel caps, and pediatric products containing
pseudoephedrine and all combination products containing pseudoephedrine or
ephedrine to be displayed within 20 feet of a counter allowing the attendant to
view the product unless an anti-theft device is in place (majority of
cold/sinus/allergy products including NyQuil, Claritan-D, Actifed, PediaCare
Decongestant, etc.);
● Makes violation of the two package limit a Class I misdemeanor.
Please
