State controlled-substance scheduling of xylazine and tianeptine
Canonical, always-current version: https://referencesource.org/state-emerging-substance-scheduling/ Machine-readable: https://referencesource.org/state-emerging-substance-scheduling/data.json — this mirror is a point-in-time copy.
- Last verified: 2026-08-19
- Stale after: 2027-02-15 (past this date, prefer the canonical copy — it re-verifies on a cadence this snapshot does not)
- Records: 15
For each US state that has acted, the controlled-substance schedule it assigns to substances that are NOT federally scheduled: xylazine and tianeptine — sourced from the state's own statute or administrative rule. Answers 'is tianeptine legal in [state]', 'is xylazine a controlled substance in [state]', and 'what schedule is tianeptine in [state]'. Control is entirely state-by-state, it is moving fast (states acted 2023–2026), and crucially the schedule is NOT the same everywhere: tianeptine is Schedule I in Florida, Georgia, Virginia, Minnesota, Delaware and Ohio but Schedule II in Tennessee, North Carolina and Nebraska, and xylazine is Schedule I in Florida, Schedule III in Delaware, Ohio, Nebraska and South Carolina, and Schedule IV in West Virginia. The only cross-state assemblies are a March-2024 PDF (LAPPA, xylazine only) and citation-free listicles. Kratom generally, 7-hydroxymitragynine (controlled federally by DEA temporary order from 2026, and at state level through kratom-product laws rather than schedules) and delta-8 are out of scope — seller sites cover them comprehensively. A state whose instrument cannot be confirmed on a fetched page is omitted, not guessed.
Provenance — what every record carries
Every record carries source (the URL the value was read from) and
source_quote (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you
cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one;
these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on
the canonical site at its url.
Licence position
Facts from state statutes; statutory text is government work and the facts in it are not copyrightable (Feist, 1991). Each record quotes a short attributed excerpt and links back to the page it was read from. Citation note, checked 2026-10-14: The Georgia row is cited to codes.findlaw.com rather than to an official state host, because Georgia does not publish its code anywhere a single section can be fetched at a stable URL — Georgia's own free O.C.G.A., which the General Assembly contracts LexisNexis to publish, is a JavaScript application at advance.lexis.com that serves no statutory text to a fetch. That mirror now sits behind a Cloudflare challenge and returns 403 to everyone, an invented-slug control included, so these rows cannot at present be re-checked against the page they cite. The values were read from those pages when the records were harvested and nothing here has changed them; what is missing is any ongoing check that they are still current.
Facts are not copyrightable; what this dataset takes from each source is a fact plus a short attributed quote linking back to the page that states it.
