    8  provisions of chapter 468 relating to orthotics or pedorthics do
    9  not apply to any licensed pharmacist or to any person acting

   16  manner as any other pharmacy practice. The Board of Pharmacy
   17  shall develop rules regarding the practice of orthotics and

   19  supervision of a pharmacist engaged in the practice of orthotics
   20  or pedorthics is not precluded from continuing that practice
   21  pending adoption of these rules.
   22         Section 6. Subsection (3) of section 468.812, Florida
