DEA Extends Listing of Phenethylamines as Schedule I Drug

November 17, 2015 by Brian Feito|Other U.S.

The Drug Enforcement Administration extended the temporary listing of three synthetic phenethylamines to Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act (here), continuing strict controls to the import and export of the chemicals because of their potential for abuse. The final order will remain in effect for one year pending completion of a permanent scheduling order. The DEA also on Nov. 13 issued a proposed rule that would make the listing of phenethylamines in Schedule I permanent (here).
