dentist, or veterinarian is licensed by law to administer such drug, and such

drug bears a label containing the name and place of business of the

dispenser, the serial number and date of such prescription, and the name of

such physician, dentist, or veterinarian.



3. The department is hereby directed to promulgate regulations exempting

from any labeling or packaging requirement of sections 196.010 to 196.120,

establishments other than those where originally processed or packed, on

condition that such drugs and devices are not adulterated or misbranded under

the provisions of said sections upon removal from such processing, labeling,

or repacking establishment.

packaging or labeling requirements and such body shall have

failed within a reasonable time to prescribe such requirements;



(9) If it is a drug and its container is so made, formed, or

drug; or if it is offered for sale under the name of another

drug;

dispensing drugs pursuant to a diagnosis by mail, shall be exempt

from the requirements of this section if such physician, dentist,
