Buying Sudafed In Missouri


Missouri law limits people to buying 3.6 grams a day -- which is about 120 standard tablets -- or 9 grams in a 30-day period of products containing pseudoephedrine, such as Sudafed, Claritin-D and Aleve Cold & Sinus. It also requires buyers to be at least 18 years old and to show photo identification.

The reason for these prescription requirements is that PSE, the main ingredient in Sudafed, is used to make illegal methamphetamine. Also called crystal meth, methamphetamine is a highly addictive drug. These requirements help prevent people from buying Sudafed to make this drug.


From a Fourth Amendment perspective, there would be nothing wrong with this if the pharmacy customer is truly free to decline the conversation. But if police are authorized to insist or to impede a person's free movement (or take her into custody), there must at least be reasonable suspicion that the person has committed a crime. Does buying too much Sudafed (perhaps because it's on sale) qualify?


I just moved to Florissant, and I have chronic sinus issues and use Sudafed somewhat regularly. Does anyone know the rules for buying it here? I can't keep up. (In Ballwin, you need a prescription. In Des Peres, you have to live in the Des Peres zip code or one of the adjacent zip codes. In unincorporated South County, you just need an ID, and you can't purchase more than the state defined maximum.) It is such a PIA keeping up with the regulations every time I move. Rules aren't uniform across the board, and I can't find a list of rules for all the municipalities anywhere. Can anyone help out?


NPLEx has been a pleasantly easy tool for documenting PSE sales. We no longer need to be concerned about whether the customer has been buying PSE from other sources that day. The scanner has made the process very quick and easy, and the support staff have been very helpful in getting my system up and running.


Type II is less intuitive--but it happens when the test fails to distinguish between causes. Type II would be if the intervention fails to distinguish meth users buying Sudafed from those who have colds. In medical parlance it would be a false negative. Every time an ordinary sick person get carded for buying cold medicine, she is a victim of this second kind of policy error. 041b061a72
