This bill adds 44 dangerous synthetic drugs and opioid-like substances to South Dakota's list of Schedule I controlled substances, making their possession, sale, and manufacture illegal. The new banned substances include various synthetic opioids and sedatives that have no approved medical use in the state. The bill declares an emergency, allowing these restrictions to take effect immediately rather than waiting for the standard effective date.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
