AI Summary
This bill amends Section 41-29-113 of the Mississippi Code of 1972 to add five specific substances to Schedule I of the Uniform Controlled Substances Act, classifying them as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse and harm. These newly scheduled substances are Butonitazene, Flunitazene, Metodesnitazene, and Dipentylone, all of which are synthetic opioids or stimulants, and Ethyl 2-phenyl-2-piperidin-2-yl)acetate, a substance with stimulant properties. This reclassification means these substances will be subject to the strictest controls under the law, similar to drugs like heroin and LSD, and will take effect on July 1, 2026.
