Why hasn't the DEA scheduled more RCs?
    #16404845 -

The DEA has been aware of the use of research chemicals for years now. They have have the power to schedule substances, but there is an administrative process. From wikipedia:

"Proceedings to add, delete, or change the schedule of a drug or other substance may be initiated by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), or by petition from any interested party, including the manufacturer of a drug, a medical society or association, a pharmacy association, a public interest group concerned with drug abuse, a state or local government agency, or an individual citizen. When a petition is received by the DEA, the agency begins its own investigation of the drug.

The DEA also may begin an investigation of a drug at any time based upon information received from laboratories, state and local law enforcement and regulatory agencies, or other sources of information.

Once the DEA has collected the necessary data, the Deputy Administrator of DEA,[10] requests from HHS a scientific and medical evaluation and recommendation as to whether the drug or other substance should be controlled or removed from control. This request is sent to the Assistant Secretary of Health of HHS. Then, HHS solicits information from the Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration and evaluations and recommendations from the National Institute on Drug Abuse and, on occasion, from the scientific and medical community at large. The Assistant Secretary, by authority of the Secretary, compiles the information and transmits back to the DEA a medical and scientific evaluation regarding the drug or other substance, a recommendation as to whether the drug should be controlled, and in what schedule it should be placed.

The medical and scientific evaluations are binding to the DEA with respect to scientific and medical matters. The recommendation on scheduling is binding only to the extent that if HHS recommends that the substance not be controlled, the DEA may not control the substance.

Once the DEA has received the scientific and medical evaluation from HHS, the DEA Administrator will evaluate all available data and make a final decision whether to propose that a drug or other substance be controlled and into which schedule it should be placed.

It's only a matter of time before new drug legislation gets put in place for designer drugs. Something similar to the Anabolic Steroid Control Act of 2004 that placed all anabolic steroids and prohormones as controlled substances.

I remember a few years ago there was just CanadaRC.com and a couple other sites that sold research chemicals but now its all blown up all over the internet, TV, newspapers, etc.

I agree it wouldn't surprise me if 25I gets emergency scheduled this summer, there's been a bunch of nasty incidents and some reported deaths already, and from what I've been reading its about to hit the market big time.


still I wonder what's been holding the DEA back all this time. They don't need to pass a law they just need to go through an administrative process. Is the bureaucratic red tape really that effective in slowing it down?

Typically, its two things: A lack of scientific data and priorities.  Scheduling is an arduous process, it can take up to a year to move it through the multiple agencies involved.

...most subjects find the experience valuable, some find it frightening, and many say that is it uniquely lovely.
