Regulates Internet pharmacies and electronic prescriptions.
This bill requires internet pharmacies that deliver prescription drugs to New Jersey patients to obtain a state permit from the New Jersey State Board of Pharmacy. To qualify, pharmacies must be based in the U.S., provide licensing documentation, submit inspection reports, and maintain records of New Jersey patients. The permit mandates pharmacies to comply with New Jersey laws on prescription confidentiality, provide toll-free pharmacist consultations, and ensure prescriptions are electronically transmitted or sent as facsimiles. It directly affects out-of-state internet pharmacies serving New Jersey residents, while exempting those certified by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy.
