The bill H. 4653 proposes an amendment to the South Carolina Code of Laws, specifically Section 44-53-250, which pertains to Schedule IV controlled substances. The amendment seeks to add two substances, Mifepristone and Misoprostol, to this schedule. This inclusion means that any material, compound, mixture, or preparation containing these substances, along with their salts and isomers, will be regulated under Schedule IV unless specifically exempted or listed in another schedule.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that the repeal or amendment of any law by this act will not affect any pending actions, rights, duties, or liabilities that are based on the previous law. It ensures that all laws that are repealed or amended will still be considered in effect for the purpose of maintaining any existing rights, civil actions, or criminal prosecutions as of the effective date of the act. The bill will take effect upon approval by the Governor.
