Bill Summary

A BILL To amend the Controlled Substances Act to list fentanyl- related substances as schedule I controlled substances.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Controlled Substances Act to list fentanyl-related substances as Schedule I controlled substances. Fentanyl-related substances are defined as any substance that is structurally related to fentanyl through one or more specific modifications, such as replacement of the phenyl portion, substitution on the phenethyl group, substitution on the piperidine ring, replacement of the aniline ring, or replacement of the N-propionyl group. This means that these fentanyl-related substances will be subject to the same strict regulatory controls and penalties as other Schedule I drugs, which are considered to have a high potential for abuse and no accepted medical use.
