| Against | Those of us with chronic sinus problems use psuedoephridrine regularly. Must we really pay a doctor for a prescription? Our insurance certainly won't cover it! | May-11-2011 |

| Against | I am sick and tired of being penalized because of the actions of criminals. I suffer from allergies and the fact that I would have to spend $80.00 plus for a doctor visit in order to obtain over-the-counter relief does not make sense. Law abiding citizens should not have to pay because some people will find a way to get their illegal drugs despite any number of roadblocks that are thrown in their way. | Apr-15-2011 |

| Against | Was this bill "suggested" by a group of doctors? That is the probable motivation for passage: increase office visits ($$$) in order to get a prescription thereby costing the public much more for a simple OTC allergy or cold med ! Please vote NO !! | Apr-15-2011 |
| Against | Go after the people who abuse the drug, tougher law enforcement and longer jail time. Seems you always go after the people who aren't the law breakers. Will cost me money and time just to get over the counter medication. | Apr-15-2011 |

| Against | The makers of meth are laughing at this attempt. They have no regard for the law. This only puts money into the Dr's, pharmacy's, and pharmaceutical's. Seriously??? Think this through! Why make the law abiding citizens jump through more red tape than they already do - when it will do absolutely nothing to stifle illegal drugs??? | Apr-14-2011 |

| Against | Really. Are you kidding me. This is up there on the stupidity level with the prohibition of candles and air fresheners in public places. Do you honestly believe that persecuting the 99% of Nevadans for the acts of the criminals is really going to impact the production of meth here or CA or Mexico. If you are so worried about the influx of meth from Mexico - the call your federal leaders and tell them to strengthen the borders. Don't punish me (I have year round allergies). Any criminal can figure thier way around this. Hell - they have probably already begun stock piling since this was introduced. Stop taking things away from me. Call the feds and tell them to increase border security. In order to stop meth from coming in from Mexico - build a freaking 30 foot wall and start shooting anyone who tries to come over it. I am sick of my constitutionally protected freedoms being taken away because of our neighbors to the south. DON'T PASS THIS STUPID PIECE OF LEGISLATION. LESLIE IS AN IDIOT (BUT NOT AS MUCH AS THE PERSON WHO WANTS TO BAN CANDLES AND AIR FRESHENERS IN PUBLIC PLACES - NOW THAT IS AN IDIOT)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | Apr-14-2011 |

| Against | It is already necessary to show driver's licenses and register to get this medicine and we are only allowed a limited supply. This bill is "over-kill" and places a burden on those of us with seasonal allergies and would make an unnecessary doctor's visit with an expense not needed in today's economic climate. | Apr-12-2011 |

| Against | In passing this bill it means a medical expense that is unnecessary when the medication can be bought online from foreign countries. Why make it unaffordable to take care for the health of our families for frivolous passage of a nonsensical bill to prevent health care for a child or family member? I feel it is trying to force people to boost their medical insurance visits which in turn raise profits to insurance companies. This is a Republican ploy in aiding their contributors to bigger profits. | Apr-12-2011 |

| Against | Very unfair to the people. | Apr-12-2011 |
| Against | Instead of punishing people that are following the law, why don't you have min. of 5 yrs for users and min. 10 yrs. for dealers and manufacturers? My health care costs enough. I don't want to have to pay to go to the doctors if my kid has a runny nose. Punish the criminals not us regular citizens. | Apr-11-2011 |
| Against | Will increase taxpayers cost of living and (or) reduce their quality of life. Could negatively effect state tax receipts. All that is needed (if anything) is purchasers to sign for medication and law enforcement to have access to the db. | Apr-11-2011 |
| Against | The worst part of this bill is the ability of those needing medication for the common cold or allergy to obtain the medication without having to pay for a doctor visit. Also when you wake up and find you have a sinus headache or cold it's not very comforting if you have to wait 3 to 5 days, if your lucky to even get a doctors appointment. Please vote "NO" on this bill. | Apr-11-2011 |

| Against | Apr-11-2011 | |
| Against | This is the absolute most ludicrious law to even be considering, especially now, when we already have the ObamaCare issue to deal with, and how much sense does it take to know when your kid or you simply need an allergenic to stop the stuffed up nose and the sneezes, and these framers of this Bill are insisting that we get a Doctor Prescription for every one who has allergies. There are many other things that YOU and the rest of our Senate need to put these energies into, such as deciding to help Governor Sandoval BALANCE THE BUDGET WITHOUT RAISING TAXES, which is a lot more important than this stupid Bill. Get your act together and stop even WASTING TIME AN ENERGY ON FRIVILOUS BILLS SUCH AS THIS. WE DO NOT NEED TO HAVE ANY MORE STUPIDITY AND STATE ORIENTED NANNY GOVERNMENT. GET REAL AND DO THE JOB YOU WERE PUT IN THERE FOR. By the way, I was up against you at your selection to the spot you are in, so show me that you are going to do the work that you are supposed to do and honor the will of the people. | Apr-11-2011 |

| Against | Apr-11-2011 | |
| Against | Our ER Departments are busy enough as is, can you even imagine if this passed? Does anyone care about time management, cost & time off work and/or school to go to the doctor? If this passes, do you think you will see a big jump in petty thefts, so a single mom can buy black market cough syrup for her child? Get a clue. Vote No on SB 203 | Apr-11-2011 |
| Against | Our state has not the financial capability to fund this. There are other ways this stuff can be produced in a home-lab. This is not the way to crack down on drug use. The bill is too complicated and requires too much regulation. The evidence is all about us, regulation is not the answer. I encourage you to please vote no on SB203! | Apr-11-2011 |

| For | I have lived in a state which passed a similar law and it dramaticallty reduced manufacture of methapmphetamine as well as property damage to homes which drug maunufacturers rented from unwitting landlords. PLEASE PLEASE support this bill. Methamphetamine is one of the most dangerous illegal drugs a person and take and one "trip" can ruin a person's mind for life. Meth patients overload local hospital emergency rooms. Anything which will reduce meth use should be the law of the land!!! As a manager at the Oregon State Mental Health Division, we were asked to provide long term supervised care for individuals impaired by meth. We had to decline, and the fearsome places these poor souls had to go to for long term care were a nightmare. PLEASE PASS THIS BILL! | Apr-11-2011 |

| Against | Apr-11-2011 | |
| Against | These medications are already controlled by the pharmacist and require identification at the Pharmacy counter to purchase. The quantity is also controlled. Additional roadblocks to simple decongestants is unnecessary. | Apr-11-2011 |

| Against | Don't pass this bill. It is ridiculous to think that you can keep people from drugging themselves. We already have laws to penalize those who engage in illicit drugs when caught driving their cars, or being in public. We don't want any more laws. There are too many now for us to know them all. | Apr-10-2011 |
| Against | This puts an unnecessary financial and time burden on honest people and their physicians. Drug dealers find black market avenues for their products and the research I have read does not support this as an effective means of control. | Apr-10-2011 |
| Against | This bill impacts point of medical for many who can't afford to go to the doctor for every cold symptom. We already regulate this through dispensing amounts. We can not regulate access to every harmful addictive drug or we would have to eliminate bath salts, aerosol cans and many other products. Please do not pass this bill. | Apr-10-2011 |
| Against | Another great example of something probably well intentioned that is ridiculous in practice. Let's find a way to punish meth dealers, not people who just want to cure a cold, slow their alegergies or help a sick child recover. This is not a good option. | Apr-09-2011 |

What’s next? A permit and training to own a fork because you might poke yourself! I moved to Nevada to get the government out of my life.

| For | Meth use has become a significant and frightening issue to potential and current users because of the minimal cost, the ease of obtaining manufacturing supplies and the dramatic impact on the user. The concern becomes much more important when considering the range of violent impact on the general public because of related crime and proximaty to the manufacture, distribution and use of the drug. The impact of this bill on the general public will be miniscule, especially compared to the potential impact on manufacturers and users. I fully support SB203. | Apr-08-2011 |

| For | This is WHERE the meth is coming from .... citizens can use another appropriate medication or get a script! NV Health Centers or free clinics such as the Ross Clinic see low income folks and NV Care Chest or Needymeds.com can provide prescriptions at no cost .... meth is the downfall of those with addictive tendencies.... take away the source of production! | Apr-08-2011 |

| Against | Apr-07-2011 | |
| Against | far too much money for Dr. to get prescription, my deductable is $500.00 My wife has no Prscription coverage, only medical! It would cost a fortune to keep her from sinus infections. We cannot afford this. | Apr-07-2011 |
| For | The manufacture of methamphetamine in the Carson area and the deliterious effects on teens and adults, warrants getting these products off the street and away from the nands of illegal drug makers. Plenty of cold medicine out there for those who use OTC medicines. | Apr-07-2011 |
| For | This needs to pass here in Nevada. It will have very little effect on getting my cold medicines over the counter and is one more step to clamp down on meth use and will hopefully help Nevada save some money in dealing with meth caused problems. | Apr-07-2011 |

| Against | Apr-07-2011 | |
| Against | This bill is ridiculous! We are seniors, on a fixed income and rarely take any pseudoephedirine product. However, requiring us to make an appointment, drive to the doctor, pay for an office visit, drive to the pharmacy to get it filled is outlandish. Studies already show that the majority of ephedrine is smuggled through Mexico and South America. The amount of individual, low level medication required to make any substantial amount of methamphetamine from pseudophedrine would boggle the average taxpayer. Kill this bill and do not increas our taxes, time and money needed to treat a minor illness. This bill will do nothing to cut down on methamphetamine production/use! | Apr-07-2011 |

| For | The mild inconvenience that may ensue from having precurser drugs prescription only (obtain Rx from physician or choose an alternative cold/allergy medication), is well worth it to reduce methamphetamine production and use in Nevada. The cost is simply way too high not to take this step before it is too late. The harm that is done to children and families as a result of meth use and addiction is devastating to our communities, our resources and our future. It is time to protect the people, particularly our children, instead of the corporations. I think the evidence shows without a doubt that the alternatives, logging and electronic tracking, don't work. | Apr-07-2011 |

| Against | As if medical costs were not high enough, now I would need to go to my doctor to get a prescription to obtain over the counter medication? How does this stop crime and meth production? It seems to me it only benefits my doctor, who is busy enough with real office visits and doesn't need a bunch of people making appointments just to obtain a prescription for simple medication, and cost me more money.

| Against | I am opposed to SB203. This bill would create a great hardship on law abiding citizens who are just looking for some relief for the common cold. I have tried the "new formula" cold medicine that does not contain Pseudoephedrine, and have repeatedly found that is does not work for me, or my family members. We routinely need to purchase Advil Cold & Sinus, Mucinex, Claritin-D, and Children's Sudafed during cold & allergy season, which is almost year round here in Northern Nevada. I am a bus | Mar-15-2011 |
| Against | This is a fix for a problem we no longer have. Our huge meth epidemic comes from super-labs not home grown labs anymore. What about people who need pseudoephed daily? we are already behind the counter, waiting in line and being tracked when we purchase.. Seriously, now I'll need to pay for an RX w/o insurance and then wait in line an be tracked? How many dr visits a year will that take just for hay fever? Ridiculous!!! | Mar-15-2011 |
| Against | People should not be made to pay money to see a doctor, just to wait in line and pay more money just to get common allergy medication. The alternatives do not always work as well. Most of the pseudoephedrine in meth production is coming from Mexico in bulk quantities, not drug stores. Allergy sufferers shouldn't have to suffer additional burdens because of the actions of meth producers. | Mar-15-2011 |
| Against | Requiring these substances to be issued by prescription only is over-reaching and unneccessary. The current restrictions - especially if enhanced by additional computer tracking- are more than sufficient. Further restriction is detrimental and insulting to law abiding citizens. | Mar-15-2011 |
| Against | I have alergies and do not want to have to get a prescription to buy Walfed 12 hour or Dye Free Benedryl for my allery to food dyes. | Mar-15-2011 |
| Against | What . . . so you want us to pay a $100 doctor viste to get $10 worth of meds???? | Mar-15-2011 |
| Against | Are you kidding? If times aren't tough enough right now, you want to make people see a doctor before they can buy OVER-THE-COUNTER allergy medication? In case you haven't noticed, we're having a hard enough time making ends meet out here. Now you want to make someone take a day off work, pay for an office visit, and then pay what will soon be inflated prices for allergy medication. I find it ironic that this was on the news when our sidewalks and gutters are green with pollen. This is either a knee-jerk r | Mar-15-2011 |
| Against | No more nanny laws. Period. It is time for the law makers to find a better solution to these types of problems. Law abiding citizens are sick and tired of having their lives be affected in these ways by well meaning lawmakers who don't consider the consequences of the laws they make on the average person. Find a solution that doesn't affect my life. | Mar-15-2011 |

| For | Meth is the most regulateable illegal drug there is. The states that have enacted legislation such as this have seen their meth labs, and the hazards to neighborhoods and children that go with them, all but disappear. Is it so inconvenient to get a prescript that we'd rather have a booming meth economy in our state? Prioritize people! | Mar-14-2011 |
| Against | Nevadans should not have to get a perscription from their doctor which will also cost an office visit to simply buy a cold remedy.Don't penalize responsible citizens for the actions of a few. | Mar-13-2011 |
| Against | Vote against this bill. It will only inconvenience taxpayers that use drugs such as Claritin-D. It will drive up their costs (requiring a prescription - obtained through a doctor's visit). This is not necessary. | Mar-13-2011 |
| Against | SB-203, a well intentioned but poorly thought out bill. State and federal law already controls the sale of over the counter cold and allergy medicine. Do we really want to force citizens to see a doctor two weeks later for medication needed now? Aren’t medical costs high enough? Do we want to see a seventy year old tourist to Las Vegas or Reno arrested on felony drug charges because a traffic officer sees a package of cold medication on the seat of the car? | Mar-12-2011 |
| Against | I believe this will drive up the cost of medical for many individuals. Aren't we trying to bring the cost of healthcare down? | Mar-12-2011 |
| Against | I am concerned that this bill will only serve to increase the overextended PCP’s, pharmacists, and pharmacies workload by mandating the need for a Rx for any ephedrine or pseudoephedrine product. I know there is a database that tracks all purchases and I am not clear on why this is not an effective measure to prevent misappropriation of pseudoephedrine in the production of meth. If the database is ineffective, why? Perhaps more money and time should be spent fixing this method of controlling illicit use o | Mar-11-2011 |

| Against | This is a ridiculous bill that will do nothing to stop drug dealers but will penalize individuals and put a burden on the health care system. It would be better to institute a system among pharmacies that would better track people who go to several different places to buy Sudafed. | Mar-11-2011 |
| Against | It would create unnecessary hardships if the public is required to visit the doctor to obtain a prescription for basic cold medicines. Factors to consider: Unemployment rates, the number of uninsured, increased visits to ERs to get prescriptions? Lost revenue at pharmacies when people don't get the meds; lost productivity for those employed when they have to miss work due to symptoms or having to visit doctor's office; Inability to get an appt before the cold symptoms subside?

| Against | This is an example of too much givernment interference (with good intent) and with little understanding of the sweeping burdens on the medical community. Think of the long lines at your doctor's office during allergy season; as everyone who needs relief will be mandated to visit a MD and get a prescription (probably more than once) How much of the physician's time will be taken up with what now is a simple purchase at the drug store? | Mar-10-2011 |

| Against | Would criminalize a commonly used and effective symptom relief medication. This would prevent use by a huge population who can benefit from the effective and inexpensive medication. Other models of control should be used from methampetamine. | Mar-10-2011 |
| Against | A more advanced tracking system would work better. Requiring a prescription is not the answer. Health care costs are high enough. I should not have to go to the doctor for a prescription every time I get the sniffles. | Mar-09-2011 |

| For | Many children suffer and die each year in the State of Nevada due to drug abuse. One of the leading chemicals on our streets is called Methamphetamine which is produced from Pseudoephedrine which can be found in many OTC (Over The Counter) medications such as cold meds. If these were taken off of the shelves and placed in prescription form only, we might see a little less production or manufacturing of methamphetamines. Thanks. | Mar-07-2011 |

Why is that the good citizens must be forced to obtain a prescription for certain drugs they use RESPONSIBLY so the State can feel like it's helping stem the tide of drug trafficking and abuse?
