The state has reached an agreement to return Oklahoma s stockpile of hydroxychloroquine for a refund, Attorney General Mike Hunter announced Friday.
The agreement is with FFF Enterprises, and they have agreed to return the full purchase price paid for the medication last year to the Oklahoma State Health Department.
OSDH purchased the medication at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic after the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted emergency use authorization (EUA) for the drug as a treatment for the virus.
The FDA later revoked the EUA, the state health department asked the attorney general s office to help.

OKLAHOMA CITY -
The COVID-19 pandemic, the state s economy and the state s future were all major topics in Gov. Kevin Stitt s third State of the State address on Monday.
It has been 332 days since the first COVID-19 patient was reported in the state by the Oklahoma State Health Department.
In his address, Stitt mentioned how the turnaround is underway for Oklahoma to become a Top Ten state, but he first reflected on the historic COVID-19 pandemic and how state leaders in 2020 positioned the state for a bright future. Oklahoma, the state of our state is strong because we are resilient and well-positioned for a bright future, he said.
