Dear Mr. Reid:
Pursuant to S.C. Code Section 44-53-160(B), during the time the General Assembly is not in session, the S.C. Board of Health and Environmental Control ("Board") is authorized to designate a substance as a controlled substance after providing notice and a hearing to all interested parties. Enclosed, please find one order signed by the Board at its most recent December 8, 2022 meeting.
On July 13, 1999, the U.S. Department of Justice and the Drug Enforcement Administration published a final rule placing the substance ketamine, including its salts, isomers, and salts of isomers, into schedule III of the federal Controlled Substances Act, effective August 12, 1999, Federal Register, Volume 64, no. 133, 37673-37675. On December 11, 2014, pursuant to S.C. Code Section 44-53-160(B), the Board approved placement of ketamine into schedule III. However, the request erroneously failed to include ketamine's "salts, isomers, and salts of isomers." This omission was placed on the Board's agenda for the December 8, 2022 meeting. The Board signed an order to include the "salts, isomers, and salts of isomers" of ketamine at its December 8, 2022 meeting. (see attached)
On December 2, 2013, the U.S. Department of Justice and the Drug Enforcement Administration published a final rule placing the substance perampanel, [2-(2-oxo-1-phenyl-5-pyridin-2-yl-1,2- dihydro pyridin-3-yl) benzonitrile] into schedule III of the federal Controlled Substances Act, effective January 2, 2014, Federal Register, Volume 78, no. 231, 72013-72016. The Board subsequently signed an order at its December 8, 2022 meeting. (see attached) On December 11, 2014, pursuant to S.C. Code Section 44-53-160(B), the Department requested that the Board adopt the scheduling of a list of substances across all schedules. The term "anabolic steroids" was on this list, but without a request to schedule the substance. Therefore, while anabolic steroids have been in schedule III of the federal Controlled Substances Act since 1990, they have not been a controlled substance under the South Carolina Controlled Substances Act. This omission was placed on the Board's agenda for the December 8, 2022 meeting. The Board signed an order placing anabolic steroids in schedule III at its December 8, 2022 meeting. (see attached)
The Department makes this notification in accordance with S.C. Code Section 44-53-160(B), requiring that the Department notify the General Assembly in writing of the change in federal law or regulation and of the corresponding change in South Carolina law. Schedule III controlled substances are found in S.C. Code Section 44-53-230.
As required by law, the enclosed Board Orders have been posted on the agency website. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

M. Denise Crawford, Clerk of the Board

Board of Health and Environmental Control (Board) is authorized to add, delete, or reschedule a substance as a controlled substance during the time the General Assembly is not in session after providing notice and a hearing to interested parties; and
WHEREAS the Department requests the Board's approval of three substances to be added to schedule ill of the South Carolina Controlled Substances Act. All three substances are schedule III controlled substances under the federal Contro1led Substances Act, 21 U.S.C. 801 et seq., and are not scheduled as controlled substances under the South Carolina Controlled Substances Act; and
THEREFORE, the Board of Health and Environmental Control, based upon the recommendation of the Department, comments received at the public hearing, adopts the scheduling of ketamine's salts, isomers, and salts of isomers; perampanel, including its salts, isomers, and salts of isomers; and anabolic steroids, and amends Sections 44-53-230 of the South Carolina Controlled Substances Act, as described.
