Nebraska LB515 would amend the Pharmacy Practice Act to allow pharmacists to dispense emergency refills of up to a 30-day supply for non-controlled substance maintenance medications if specific conditions are met. This includes obtaining prescription information from a label, record, or database, ensuring the refill is not for a controlled substance, and determining that interrupting therapy could harm the patient. The bill repeals the original section and replaces it with these new provisions.
