What’s in it

This bill relates to drug paraphernalia. Under current law, a person who knowingly or intentionally manufactures, delivers, sells, or possesses drug paraphernalia commits a simple misdemeanor. Hypodermic needles or syringes manufactured, delivered, sold, or possessed for a lawful purpose are exempt from the definition of “drug paraphernalia”. The bill also exempts equipment, products, or materials used to analyze or test for the presence of fentanyl, a fentanyl analog, or a drug adulterant within a controlled substance from the definition of “drug paraphernalia”.
