The governor has announced a move to limit access to xylazine or 'tranq.' He said the potentially deadly drug appeared in 90-percent of opioid samples taken off Philadelphia's streets in 2021.
Bogen will also submit a notice of intent to schedule nitazines -- a class of synthetic opioids that have never been approved for use in the United States -- as a schedule I drug.
The governor's office said that scheduling a drug"requires manufacturers and distributors to not only verify that a practitioner, like a veterinarian, is licensed but that they are also authorized to receive a controlled substance."
