CALIFORNIA GOV. WILSON (R) VETOES DRUG DOSAGE FORM ANTI- SUBSTITUTION

CALIFORNIA GOV. WILSON (R) VETOES DRUG DOSAGE FORM ANTI- SUBSTITUTION bill by returning SB 1427 unsigned to the legislature on Sept. 15. Wilson cited the effect that the bill would have had on professional judgment of pharmacists and physicians as one of the key reasons for the veto. SB 1427 would have prohibited substitutions of prescription drugs in which two products incorporate the same active ingredient but have different release mechanisms.
