AI Summary

This bill modifies Oklahoma's Uniform Controlled Dangerous Substances Act by updating the definitions and classifications of certain substances. Specifically, it amends the definition of "marijuana" to include synthetic equivalents and derivatives, and it adds "Tetrahydrocannabinol" to Schedule I, which is a list of drugs with a high potential for abuse and no currently accepted medical use. Additionally, the bill moves "Dronabinol" from Schedule I to Schedule III, which is a schedule for substances with a moderate to low potential for physical and psychological dependence, and it removes "Tetrahydrocannibinols" from Schedule III. These changes aim to align state law with federal classifications and address the evolving landscape of controlled substances. The act is set to become effective on November 1, 2026.
