An Act providing for the use of the name of the prescriber's health care practice instead of the name of the prescriber on the prescription label for certain pharmaceuticals.
SB 887 allows prescribers of mifepristone, misoprostol, or their generic alternatives to request that pharmacy labels display their healthcare practice name instead of their personal name. This directly affects prescribers (like doctors or clinics) and pharmacies dispensing these specific medications in Pennsylvania. The key provision requires pharmacies to use the practice name on labels when requested by the prescriber. The bill aims to protect prescriber privacy during the dispensing process for these pharmaceuticals. It takes effect 30 days after enactment.
