Ohio HB943 prohibits the sale of diet pills and certain supplements to minors.

Ohio HB943 amends the Revised Code to prohibit the sale of over-the-counter diet pills and dietary supplements for weight loss or muscle building to individuals under 18. Retailers must verify the age of buyers through identification cards, except when the buyer appears to be 25 or older. Delivery sales require a signature from someone over 18 and photo identification. Violators face fines up to $1,000. The bill defines "dietary supplement for weight loss or muscle building" and "over-the-counter diet pill" based on labeling and marketing.
