Non-Self-Injectable Drugs
( www.pharmacy.ohio.gov/ SB230):
Ef fective September 17, 2014, Senate Bill 230 prohibits pharmacists and pharmacy interns from dispensing certain non-self-injectable cancer drugs by delivering them or causing them to be delivered directly to the patient, the
patient’s representative, or the patient’s private residence.
The dispensing prohibition does not apply when the pa-tient’s private residence is an institutional or health care facility or if certain notifcations have been provided (see the guidance document) when the patient is a hospice patient or home health agency client.
