FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) — Cold and allergy suffer-ers would face limits on the amount of some over-the-counter medications that they can purchase under a bill intended to curb production of meth-amphetamine.
The Senate voted 29-8 for final passage on Friday. Gov. Steve Beshear said he would sign the measure into law, calling it “a good step for both families and communi-ties.”
The goal is to limit access to large quantities of medicines like Claritin D and Allegra that con-tain pseudoephedrine, a key ingredient in the ille-gal drug that’s being widely abused in the state.
The proposal would limit purchases to no more than 7.2 grams a month or 24 grams a year. That’s the equivalent of roughly two packages per month or seven packages per year. People who need more would have to get a prescription.
Rep. Tommy Turner,
R-Somerset, said the bill is one of the most impor-tant that lawmakers have considered this year because it will save lives and property by curbing production of the addic-tive drug that has ravaged much of Kentucky.
“It’s such an epidemic that something had to be done,” said Turner, who supported the measure in the House despite objec-tions from some critics who saw it as infringing on the rights of consum-ers.
“I think you’ll find that nobody will need more than that, and if they do need more than that they
need to be going to see a doctor anyway,” he said.
Originally, the legisla-tion would have made any medication containing pseudoephedrine avail-able only by prescription. The idea was to make it more difficult to for meth cookers to get pseu-doephedrine. But that proposal hit major opposi-tion and had to be amend-ed to get it through the General Assembly.
Sen. Jerry Rhoads, D-Madisonville, broke the legislative stalemate on the issue with a compro-mise proposal that allowed minimum purchases with-out a prescription.
