Bill overview
The LABEL Opioids Act of 2021 aims to reduce opioid addiction by requiring specific warning labels on prescription opioid containers. These labels will clearly state that opioids can lead to dependence, addiction, and overdose. Individuals who fail to provide these warnings when dispensing opioids could face penalties, and the Drug Enforcement Administration will establish regulations to ensure consistent labeling practices.
