The bill amends Section 481.037 of the Health and Safety Code to designate certain substances as Schedule IV controlled substances under the Texas Controlled Substances Act. Specifically, it adds carisoprodol, mifepristone, and misoprostol to the list of Schedule IV substances, replacing the previous designation of only carisoprodol.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that the changes will only apply to offenses committed on or after the effective date of January 1, 2026. Offenses committed prior to this date will be governed by the law in effect at the time of the offense, ensuring that the former law remains applicable for those cases.
Statutes affected: Introduced: Health and Safety Code 481.037 (Health and Safety Code 481)
