CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES -- Amends and repeals existing law to revise provisions regarding controlled substances.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
The Idaho Board of Pharmacy administers the regulatory provisions of the state's Uniform Controlled Substances Act (CSA). If any substance is designated, rescheduled, or deleted as a controlled substance under federal law and notice thereof is given to the Board, the Board shall similarly control the substance unless the Board objects to the inclusion, rescheduling, or deletion. This bill mirrors DEA scheduling decisions for acetyl fentanyl and dronabinol in oral solution. The bill also cleans up obsolete language in the CSA with respect to ordering and dispensing controlled substances, and in regards to the Board's requirement to republish the schedule every two years.
