HRS §461-19
Who this law does not apply to
This section says the law does not apply to licensed practitioners who are allowed to prescribe prescription drugs. They can handle and give these drugs to their own patients as part of their professional duties, as long as it is within their authorized practice.
The statute, as written — Application of law
This chapter shall not apply to any practitioner legally licensed by the State or authorized by the laws of the State to prescribe prescription drugs within the scope of the practitioner's practice when the practitioner is handling drugs in the course of the practitioner's professional duties or prohibit the practitioner from personally supplying the practitioner's own patients with such prescription drugs if the prescription drugs fall within the practitioner's scope of authorized practice.
