Reports required, exceptions, penalties

In plain English

Businesses or people who sell or give away certain chemicals — like acetone, iodine, or pseudoephedrine — have to send a report to the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services every time they do so. These chemicals are on a special list because they can be used to make illegal drugs. The department can add or remove chemicals from the list.
