Drug Enforcement Administration April 25, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

This Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) proposes to classify the following three steroids as ``anabolic steroids'' under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA): boldione, desoxymethyltestosterone, and 19-nor-4,9(10)-androstadienedione. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) believes that this action is necessary in order to prevent the abuse and trafficking of these steroids. If the regulations are amended, these steroids will be listed as schedule III controlled substances subject to the regulatory control provisions of the CSA.
