approved medications; scheduling; prescription authority

Summary

The bill adds a new statute that automatically gives any FDA‑approved medication the same controlled‑substance schedule that the DEA assigns it at the federal level. If the federal schedule is anything other than Schedule I, the drug is treated as a controlled substance in Arizona and can be prescribed. This streamlines regulation for doctors, pharmacists, and patients.
