HB600

Montana HB600 allows schools to maintain stock albuterol for emergency use and defines protocols for its administration.

Montana HB600 revises laws regarding emergency medication administration in schools. It allows public and nonpublic schools to maintain a supply of stock albuterol for emergency use. Schools must develop a protocol for training staff, maintaining the medication, and administering it. The bill also outlines liability limits for schools and requires reporting on the use of stock albuterol. Students with asthma, severe allergies, or anaphylaxis can possess and self-administer their prescribed medication with parental authorization.
