Notice of Public Hearing to Adopt Rules
A public hearing will be held in the Hamlet Building, Room 202, 4001 W. Valhalla Blvd, Sioux Falls, SD on April 12, 2024, at 2:00 pm CDT to consider the adoption and amendment of proposed Administrative Rules of South Dakota numbered:
§§ 20:51:01, 20:51:02, 20:51:04, 20:51:05, 20:51:06, 20:51:07, 20:51:13, 20:51:14, 20:51:15, 20:51:16, 20:51:17, 20:51:19, 20:51:20, 20:51:21, 20:51:22, 20:51:23, 20:51:24, 20:51:25, 20:51:27, 20:51:28, 20:51:29, 20:51:30, 20:51:31, and 20:51:36.
The effect of the rules will be to provide for a small fee increase for pharmacists, updated wording, references, compounding standards, and changes in intern and technician vaccine administration standards.
The reason for adopting the proposed rules is to clean up wording and references, add a photo id requirement for obtaining a controlled substance prescription, set central fill standards, update compounding chapter to meet new USP Chapters, update intern vaccine requirements and allow trained technician vaccinations.
Persons interested in presenting amendments, data, opinions, and arguments for or against the proposed rules may appear in-person at the hearing, or mail or e-mail them to South Dakota Board of Pharmacy, 4001 W. Valhalla Blvd, Suite 106, Sioux Falls, SD 57106 or to Board of Pharmacy email address pharmacyboard@state.sd.us.

Medication-Assisted Treatment
Promoting pharmacist-provided medication-assisted treatment for patients diagnosed with opioid use disorder (OUD) is the current initiative of NABP Chairperson Timothy D. Fensky, RPh, DPh, FACA. This initiative will build on the efforts of the state boards of pharmacy to combat the opioid crisis over the past decade. Furthering existing NABP efforts, including PMP InterConnect, an interstate prescription monitoring data resource, and safe.pharmacy, a consumer-focused website highlighting safe medication practices, will also be an important aspect of this initiative.
