Article 22 Regulation for Restriction of Synthetic Drugs
ARTICLE 22 REGULATION FOR RESTRICTION OF SYNTHETIC DRUGS SECTION 22.1 AUTHORITY This regulation is promulgated under the authority granted to the Needham Board of Health under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 111, Section 31 which states that “boards of health may make reasonable health regulations”. SECTION 22.2 PURPOSE The Needham Board of Health has found that synthetic marijuana, consisting of plant or other material treated with various chemicals or other synthetic substances not approved for human consumption, may be marketed and sold as herbal incense in the greater Boston area, although they are being used in the same manner and for the same purposes as scheduled drugs. In addition, the use of these products has become particularly popular among teens and young adults. Based on information and reports from hospitals, emergency room doctors, and police agencies, individuals who use these products experience dangerous side effects including convulsions, hallucinations, and dangerously elevated heart rates. This is evidence that synthetic marijuana products are harmful if inhaled or consumed, and present a significant public health danger. These synthetic compounds and others have a high potential for abuse and lack of any accepted medical use, these dangerous products, while not approved for human consumption, are marketed and sold in a form that allows for such consumption, putting at risk the individuals who come into contact with them. Therefore, the Needham Board of Health adopts this regulation for the purpose and with the intent to protect the public health and safety of the Town of Needham and its residents from the threat posed by the availability and use of synthetic marijuana, synthetic stimulants, synthetic hallucinogens, and other dangerous products by prohibiting persons from trafficking in, possessing, and using them within the town. -

Appendix-2Final.Pdf 663.7 KB
North West ‘Through the Gate Substance Misuse Services’ Drug Testing Project Appendix 2 – Analytical methodologies Overview Urine samples were analysed using three methodologies. The first methodology (General Screen) was designed to cover a wide range of analytes (drugs) and was used for all analytes other than the synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs). The analyte coverage included a broad range of commonly prescribed drugs including over the counter medications, commonly misused drugs and metabolites of many of the compounds too. This approach provided a very powerful drug screening tool to investigate drug use/misuse before and whilst in prison. The second methodology (SCRA Screen) was specifically designed for SCRAs and targets only those compounds. This was a very sensitive methodology with a method capability of sub 100pg/ml for over 600 SCRAs and their metabolites. Both methodologies utilised full scan high resolution accurate mass LCMS technologies that allowed a non-targeted approach to data acquisition and the ability to retrospectively review data. The non-targeted approach to data acquisition effectively means that the analyte coverage of the data acquisition was unlimited. The only limiting factors were related to the chemical nature of the analyte being looked for. The analyte must extract in the sample preparation process; it must chromatograph and it must ionise under the conditions used by the mass spectrometer interface. The final limiting factor was presence in the data processing database. The subsequent study of negative MDT samples across the North West and London and the South East used a GCMS methodology for anabolic steroids in addition to the General and SCRA screens. -
FEWS Annual Report 15/16
Report on the Home Office Forensic Early Warning System (FEWS) – 2015/16 A system to identify New Psychoactive Substances (NPS) in the UK November 2018 Contents Executive summary 3 Background to FEWS 5 Analysis of results and findings 6 Action taken by Government to tackle NPS 13 Looking forward 15 2 1. Executive summary The Home Office Forensic Early Warning System (FEWS) was set up in 2011 in response to the emergence of new psychoactive substances (NPS). NPS are mainly synthetic drugs manufactured in a laboratory or factory (chiefly based overseas) and are used in the UK, Europe and the rest of the world. Over 500 NPS are controlled under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 (MDA) but there are many more that are not controlled. During 2015/16 FEWS: • obtained and analysed 2,386 samples from six FEWS collection plans including attending one UK music festival with an on-site laboratory. • provided support for the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs’ (ACMD) ongoing monitoring of NPS; and • supported decisions relating to the Psychoactive Substances Act 2016. FEWS collected samples from the internet, head shops1, a music festival, prisons and through police forces, to identify NPS which are present in the UK or being offered for sale in the UK. The key aim of the collection plans was to collect information on NPS that are being seen in a cross-section of different environments. Key findings During 2015/16, out of 2,386 samples seen under FEWS, 1,429 samples contained at least one NPS and of these, 489 samples contained an NPS that was controlled under the MDA at the time of seizure2, while 940 samples contained an NPS which was not controlled. -

Alcohol and Drug Abuse Subchapter 9
Chapter 8 – Alcohol and Drug Abuse Subchapter 9 Regulated Drug Rule 1.0 Authority This rule is established under the authority of 18 V.S.A. §§ 4201 and 4202 which authorizes the Vermont Board of Health to designate regulated drugs for the protection of public health and safety. 2.0 Purpose This rule designates drugs and other chemical substances that are illegal or judged to be potentially fatal or harmful for human consumption unless prescribed and dispensed by a professional licensed to prescribe or dispense them and used in accordance with the prescription. The rule restricts the possession of certain drugs above a specified quantity. The rule also establishes benchmark unlawful dosages for certain drugs to provide a baseline for use by prosecutors to seek enhanced penalties for possession of higher quantities of the drug in accordance with multipliers found at 18 V.S.A. § 4234. 3.0 Definitions 3.1 “Analog” means one of a group of chemical components similar in structure but different with respect to elemental composition. It can differ in one or more atoms, functional groups or substructures, which are replaced with other atoms, groups or substructures. 3.2 “Benchmark Unlawful Dosage” means the quantity of a drug commonly consumed over a twenty-four-hour period for any therapeutic purpose, as established by the manufacturer of the drug. Benchmark Unlawful dosage is not a medical or pharmacologic concept with any implication for medical practice. Instead, it is a legal concept established only for the purpose of calculating penalties for improper sale, possession, or dispensing of drugs pursuant to 18 V.S.A. -
