Bill overview
This bill amends the New Jersey Controlled Dangerous Substances Act by adding ‘illicit fentanyls’ to Schedule I. Schedule I substances have a high potential for abuse and lack accepted medical use. The bill specifically lists several fentanyl derivatives, including Furanyl Fentanyl, 3-Methylfentanyl, 3-Methyl Butyrylfentanyl, Valeryl Fentanyl, Norfentanyl, Para-Fluorobutyryl-Fentanyl, and Carfentanyl, as Schedule I controlled substances. This action aims to further restrict the availability and distribution of these potent opioids.
