|
(a) A practitioner, in good faith, may dispense a Schedule
|
II controlled substance, which is a narcotic drug listed in |
Section 206
of this Act; or which contains any quantity of |
amphetamine or
methamphetamine, their salts, optical isomers |
or salts of optical
isomers; phenmetrazine and its salts; or |

the controlled |
substance is dispensed, and the full name, address and

number under the laws of the United States relating to
|
controlled substances of the prescriber, if he is
required by
|
those laws to be registered. If the prescription is for an |
animal it
shall state the species of animal for which it is |
ordered. The
practitioner filling the prescription shall write |
the date of filling
and his own signature on the face of the |

in which
the prescription was filled for a period of 2 years, |
so as to be readily
accessible for inspection or removal by any |
officer or employee engaged
in the enforcement of this Act. |
Whenever the practitioner's or
pharmacy's copy of any |
prescription is removed by an officer or
employee engaged in |
|
the enforcement of this Act, for the purpose of
investigation |
or as evidence, such officer or employee shall give to the
|
practitioner or pharmacy a receipt in lieu thereof. A |
prescription
for a Schedule II controlled substance shall not |

|
(b) In lieu of a written prescription required by this |
Section, a
pharmacist, in good faith, may dispense Schedule |
III, IV, or V
substances to any person either upon receiving a |
facsimile of a written,
signed prescription transmitted by the |
prescriber or the prescriber's agent
or upon a lawful oral |
prescription of a
prescriber which oral prescription shall be |
reduced
promptly to
writing by the pharmacist and such written |
memorandum thereof shall be

prescription is received by the
pharmacist and shall bear the |

oral prescription shall
write the date of filling and his own |
signature on the face of such
written memorandum thereof. The |
facsimile copy of the prescription or
written memorandum of the |
oral
prescription shall be retained on file by the proprietor |
of the pharmacy
in which it is filled for a period of not less |

Act in the same manner as a written

months after the date
thereof or be refilled more than 5 times, |
unless renewed, in writing, by
the prescriber.
|
|
(c) Except for any non-prescription targeted |
methamphetamine precursor regulated by
as defined in the |
Methamphetamine Precursor Control Act, a
controlled substance |
included in Schedule V shall not be
distributed or dispensed |
other than for a medical purpose and not for
the purpose of |
evading this Act, and then:
|
(1) only personally by a person registered to dispense |
a Schedule V
controlled substance and then only to his |
patients, or
|
(2) only personally by a pharmacist, and then only to a |
person over
21 years of age who has identified himself to |
the pharmacist by means of
2 positive documents of |
identification.
|
(3) the dispenser shall record the name and address of |
the
purchaser, the name and quantity of the product, the |
date and time of
the sale, and the dispenser's signature.
|

controlled
substance.
|
(8) a person qualified to dispense controlled |
substances under this
Act and registered thereunder shall |
at no time maintain or keep in stock
a quantity of Schedule |
V controlled substances defined and listed in
Section 212 |
(b) (1), (2) or (3) in excess of 4.5 liters for each
|
substance; a pharmacy shall at no time maintain or keep in |
stock a
quantity of Schedule V controlled substances as |
defined in excess of 4.5
liters for each substance, plus |
the additional quantity of controlled
substances necessary |
to fill the largest number of prescription orders
filled by |
that pharmacy for such controlled substances in any one |
week
in the previous year. These limitations shall not |
apply to Schedule V
controlled substances which Federal law |
prohibits from being dispensed
without a prescription.
|
(9) no person shall distribute or dispense butyl |
nitrite for
inhalation or other introduction into the human |
body for euphoric or
physical effect.
|
(d) Every practitioner shall keep a record of controlled |
substances
received by him and a record of all such controlled |
substances
administered, dispensed or professionally used by |
him otherwise than by
prescription. It shall, however, be |
sufficient compliance with this
paragraph if any practitioner |
utilizing controlled substances listed in
Schedules III, IV and |
V shall keep a record of all those substances
dispensed and |
distributed by him other than those controlled substances
which |
are administered by the direct application of a controlled
|
substance, whether by injection, inhalation, ingestion, or any |
other
means to the body of a patient or research subject. A |
practitioner who
dispenses, other than by administering, a |
controlled substance in
Schedule II, which is a narcotic drug |
listed in Section 206 of this Act,
or which contains any |
quantity of amphetamine or methamphetamine, their
salts, |
optical isomers or salts of optical isomers, pentazocine, or
|
|
methaqualone shall do so only upon
the issuance of a written |
prescription blank by a
prescriber.
|
(e) Whenever a manufacturer distributes a controlled |
substance in a
package prepared by him, and whenever a |
wholesale distributor
distributes a controlled substance in a |
package prepared by him or the
manufacturer, he shall securely |
affix to each package in which that
substance is contained a |
label showing in legible English the name and
address of the |
manufacturer, the distributor and the quantity, kind and
form |
of controlled substance contained therein. No person except a
|
pharmacist and only for the purposes of filling a prescription |
under
this Act, shall alter, deface or remove any label so |
affixed.
|
(f) Whenever a practitioner dispenses any controlled |
substance except a non-prescription targeted methamphetamine |
precursor regulated by
as defined in the Methamphetamine |
Precursor Control Act, he
shall affix to the container in which |
such substance is sold or
dispensed, a label indicating the |
date of initial filling, the practitioner's
name and address, |
the name
of the patient, the name of the prescriber,
the |
directions
for use and cautionary statements, if any, contained |
in any prescription
or required by law, the proprietary name or |
names or the established name
of the controlled substance, and |
the dosage and quantity, except as otherwise
authorized by |
regulation by the Department of Professional Regulation. No
|
person shall alter, deface or remove any label so affixed.
|
(g) A person to whom or for whose use any controlled |
substance has
been prescribed or dispensed by a practitioner, |
or other persons
authorized under this Act, and the owner of |
any animal for which such
substance has been prescribed or |
dispensed by a veterinarian, may
lawfully possess such |
substance only in the container in which it was
delivered to |
him by the person dispensing such substance.
|
(h) The responsibility for the proper prescribing or |
dispensing of
controlled substances is upon the prescriber and |
the responsibility for
the proper filling of a prescription for |
|
controlled substance drugs
rests with the pharmacist. An order |
purporting to be a prescription
issued to any individual, which |
is not in the regular course of
professional treatment nor part |
of an authorized methadone maintenance
program, nor in |
legitimate and authorized research instituted by any
|
accredited hospital, educational institution, charitable |
foundation, or
federal, state or local governmental agency, and |
which is intended to
provide that individual with controlled |
substances sufficient to
maintain that individual's or any |
other individual's physical or
psychological addiction, |
habitual or customary use, dependence, or
diversion of that |
controlled substance is not a prescription within the
meaning |
and intent of this Act; and the person issuing it, shall be
|
subject to the penalties provided for violations of the law |
relating to
controlled substances.
|
(i) A prescriber shall not preprint or cause to be
|
preprinted a
prescription for any controlled substance; nor |
shall any practitioner
issue, fill or cause to be issued or |
filled, a preprinted prescription
for any controlled |
substance.
|
(j) No person shall manufacture, dispense, deliver, |
possess with
intent to deliver, prescribe, or administer or |
cause to be administered
under his direction any anabolic |
steroid, for any use in humans other than
the treatment of |
disease in accordance with the order of a physician licensed
to |
practice medicine in all its branches for a
valid medical |
purpose in the course of professional practice. The use of
|
anabolic steroids for the purpose of hormonal manipulation that |
is intended
to increase muscle mass, strength or weight without |
a medical necessity to
do so, or for the intended purpose of |
improving physical appearance or
performance in any form of |
exercise, sport, or game, is not a valid medical
purpose or in |
the course of professional practice.

subsection (b) of this Section. This training may be conducted |
by a live trainer or by means of a computer-based training |

distributor of any targeted methamphetamine precursor shall |
have each sales employee read, sign, and date a certification |
containing the following language: |
(1) My name is (insert name of employee) and I am an
|
employee of (insert name of business) at (insert street |
address).
|
(2) I understand that in Illinois there are laws
|
governing the sale of certain over-the-counter medications |
that contain a chemical called ephedrine or a second |
chemical called pseudoephedrine. Medications that are |
subject to these laws are called "targeted methamphetamine |
precursors".
|
(3) I understand that "targeted methamphetamine |
precursors" can be
used to manufacture the illegal and |
dangerous drug methamphetamine and that methamphetamine is |
causing great harm to individuals, families, communities, |
the economy, and the environment throughout Illinois.
|
(4) I understand that under Illinois law, unless they |
are at a pharmacy counter, customers can only purchase |
small "convenience packages" of "targeted methamphetamine |
precursors".
|
(5) I understand that under Illinois law, customers can |
only purchase these "convenience packages" if they are 18 |
years of age or older, show identification, and sign a log |
according to procedures that have been described to me. |
|

sell |
more than one "convenience package" to a single customer in |
one 24-hour period.

"targeted methamphetamine precursors" to a person if I know |
that the person is going to use them to make |
methamphetamine. |
(8) I understand that there are a number of
ingredients |
that are used to make the illegal drug methamphetamine, |
including "targeted methamphetamine precursors" sold in |
"convenience packages". My employer has shown me a list of |
these various ingredients, and I have reviewed the list.
|
(9) I understand that there are certain procedures
that |
I should follow if I suspect that a store customer is |
purchasing "targeted methamphetamine precursors" or other |
products for the purpose of manufacturing methamphetamine. |
These procedures have been described to me, and I |
understand them.
|
(c) A certification form of the type described in |
subsection (b) of this Section may be signed with a handwritten |
signature or an electronic signature that includes a unique |
identifier for each employee. The certification shall be |
retained by the retail distributor for each sales employee for |
the duration of his or her employment and for at least 30 days |
following the end of his or her employment. Any such form shall |
be made available for inspection and copying by any law |
enforcement officer upon request of that officer. These records |
may be kept in electronic format if they include all the |
information specified in this Section in a manner that is |
readily retrievable and reproducible in hard-copy format. |

available to retail distributors the list of methamphetamine |
ingredients referred to in subsection (b) of this Section.
