The bill that eases restrictions on purchasing a popular allergy medicine became law this week.
House Bill 386 removes annual and package purchase limits for the decongestant medication pseudoephedrine, commonly sold under the brand name Sudafed.
Kentucky had one of the strictest laws in the nation regarding the medication. Restrictions were initially put in place because Sudafed was commonly used in the manufacturing of methamphetamine.
Limits still remain in place, but the new limits fall more in line with other states around the country.
The bill easily passed through the Kentucky legislature before becoming law this week.
