House File 182 amends Iowa's controlled substances laws by adding numerous new substances to the list of controlled substances. Specifically, it introduces new paragraphs in Section 124.204 that include various fentanyl analogs, such as alpha-Methyl butyryl fentanyl and 2,5-Dimethoxyfentanyl, as well as other synthetic drugs like ADB-BUTINACA and MDMB-4en-PINACA. Additionally, the bill removes certain existing paragraphs from the same section, streamlining the list of controlled substances.

The bill also updates Section 124.208 by adding new substances related to anabolic steroids and modifying existing definitions. It specifies that iodine in concentrations greater than 2.2 percent and N-phenylpiperidin-4-amine and its derivatives are included in the controlled substances list, with the latter's definition expanded to include halides and combinations. Furthermore, the bill establishes that any sale or transfer of a chemical mixture identified as exempt by federal regulation is permissible. The act is set to take effect immediately upon enactment.
