The resolution addresses the urgent public health threat posed by the synthetic opioid Cychlorphine (N-Propionitrile Chlorphine), which is reported to be approximately ten times more potent than fentanyl. Due to its extreme potency, even minimal doses can lead to rapid respiratory depression and a significantly increased risk of accidental overdose and death. Cychlorphine has been detected in various states, often found in counterfeit pills or mixed with other substances without users' knowledge, contributing to a rising number of fatalities. Given its high potential for abuse and lack of accepted medical use in the United States, the resolution calls for immediate action.

The Alabama Legislature formally requests the State Committee of Public Health to review and consider classifying Cychlorphine as a Schedule I controlled substance, following the criteria outlined in the Code of Alabama 1975. The resolution emphasizes the need for swift action to address this public health crisis and mandates that copies of the resolution be sent to relevant health officials to facilitate the process.
