On Monday, St. Charles County joined over 45 cities and towns in Missouri that require consumers to have a doctor’s prescription to buy any form of pseudoephedrine, including gel caps. The new law, which is expected to take effect within a month, will effect 56 pharmacies located in St. Charles county. Passage of the prescription PSE law is expected to reverse what has been a growing trend in the region and across the state, which has witnessed a 53% increase in the illegal manufacture of methamphetamine since 2007.
