Where this section sits in the code
  1. General Business Law
  2. Article 38-B. Products Sold For Human Consumption

§ 832. Restricted access to retail sale of ipecac. 1. Any retail

establishment that sells any product or products containing as the only

active ingredient ipecac, shall limit access to such products in a

manner designed to prevent the misuse or abuse of such products. Such

limitations shall include removing such products from shelves and other

locations that are directly accessible by customers, and placing such

products behind a pharmacy counter so that a consumer must request such

products in order to obtain such products from an employee working in

the pharmacy. If the retail establishment wishes to sell such products

but does not maintain a pharmacy at that retail location, such products

shall be made secure such that they may only be accessed by a manager,

assistant manager, acting manager or other supervisory personnel at such

location.

2. As used in this section "retail establishment" means every vendor

that in the regular course of business sells products containing ipecac

at retail directly to the public including, but not limited to,

pharmacies, grocery stores, and other retail stores.
