HB1028 adds xylazine, a veterinary sedative drug, to South Dakota's list of controlled substances at Schedule III, meaning it becomes illegal to possess or distribute without authorization while allowing limited medical and veterinary uses. The bill also repeals several outdated or related provisions in state drug law. This change is declared an emergency, making it effective immediately rather than at the normal date.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
