AI Summary
This bill aims to prohibit the illicit use of xylazine, a substance that is not currently approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in humans. The bill defines xylazine and its various forms, and makes it unlawful for any person to use it in humans or for any use that is not approved by the FDA. The bill also requires the Attorney General, through the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), to coordinate with the FDA Commissioner to submit reports to Congress on the prevalence of illicit xylazine use, its impacts, and potential scheduling changes.
