Cannabimimetic agents; controlled substance analogs; regulation by Board of Pharmacy; penalties. Substitutes the term "cannabimimetic agents" for the term "synthetic cannabinoids" to describe certain substances that are unlawful to possess, sell, give, distribute, or manufacture. The bill authorizes the Board of Pharmacy to place controlled substance analogs (a substance that has a chemical structure substantially similar to that of a controlled substance in Schedule I or II and that has or is intended to have the same or a greater stimulant, depressant, or hallucinogenic effect on the central nervous system) into the list of controlled substances found in Schedule I or II via an expedited regulatory process. A substance added via this process is removed from such list after 18 months unless a general law is enacted adding the substance to such list. Such controlled substance analogs are subject to the same penalties as those for the actual drug. The bill also repeals the specific criminal penalties for possession, etc., of synthetic cannabinoids and places cannabimimetic agents on the list of controlled substances in Schedule I, where they will be subject to the same penalties as those for other Schedule I controlled substances with the exception of simple possession, which will be penalized as a Class 1 misdemeanor instead of as a Class 5 felony.

Controlled substance analogs; regulation by Board of Pharmacy, synthetic cannabinoids, penalties.
