1 1 Section 1. Section 124.212, subsection 4, Code Supplement
1 2 2003, is amended by striking the subsection and inserting in
1 3 lieu thereof the following:
1 4 4. PRECURSORS TO AMPHETAMINE AND METHAMPHETAMINE. Unless
1 5 specifically excepted or listed in another schedule, any
1 6 material, compound, mixture, or preparation which contains any
1 7 quantity of the following precursors to amphetamine or
1 8 methamphetamine, including their salts, optical isomers, and
1 9 salts of their optical isomers:
1 10 a. Ephedrine.
1 11 b. Phenylpropanolamine.
1 12 c. Pseudoephedrine.
1 13 EXPLANATION
1 14 This bill makes precursor substances to amphetamine and
1 15 methamphetamine schedule V controlled substances.
1 16 The bill makes any product containing ephedrine,
1 17 phenylpropanolamine, or pseudoephedrine, a schedule V
1 18 controlled substance. This provision would include any
1 19 dietary supplement containing naturally occurring ephedrine.
1 20 Iowa administrative code rule 657-10.31 establishes the
1 21 rules for dispensing a schedule V controlled substance. The
1 22 rule limits the amount and frequency of purchase, requires the
1 23 purchaser be at least 18 years of age, and requires
1 24 presentation of identification and a signature before
1 25 purchase. A schedule V controlled substance does not require
1 26 a prescription, but is not to be distributed other than for a
1 27 medical purpose. The distribution of a schedule V substance
1 28 is regulated by pharmacists, and schedule V substances must be
1 29 kept off public access shelves.
1 30 Any criminal offense related to a schedule V controlled
1 31 substance is punishable as an aggravated misdemeanor pursuant
1 32 to Code section 124.401(1)(d).
1 33 Current law does not regulate dietary supplements
1 34 containing naturally occurring ephedrine, some products
1 35 containing ephedrine, and all products containing
2 1 pseudoephedrine or phenylpropanolamine.
