An official, employee, or agent of this state may not block or attempt to block an eligible patient's access to an investigational drug, biological product, or device under this chapter unless the drug, biological product, or device is considered adulterated or misbranded under Chapter 431. For purposes of this section, a governmental entity may not consider the drug, biological product, or device to be adulterated or misbranded based solely on the United States Food and Drug Administration not yet finally approving the drug, biological product, or device.
