The Senate Judiciary Committee heard SB 93 concerning synthetic drugs authored and presented by Sen. Merritt. This bill is in response to a Court of Appeals case finding the current statute vague. The bill requires the Indiana Administrative Code publish a list of substances declared by the Board of Pharmacy to be synthetic drugs in a specific location, and requires the Board of Pharmacy to include a link to that provision of the Indiana Administrative Code on its Internet web site. An amendment was taken by consent listing the expiration date of the rules and also adding a provision on the expiration of emergency rules under this statute. The amended bill passed 7-0.
