    AUTHORITY TO CONTROL.  (a) The state board of pharmacy shall enforce this chapter and may add substances to or delete or reschedule ((all)) substances ((enumerated in the schedules)) listed in RCW 69.50.204, 69.50.206, 69.50.208, 69.50.210, or 69.50.212 pursuant to the ((rule-making)) procedures of chapter 34.05 RCW.

    (1) In making a determination regarding a substance, the board shall consider the following:

    (((1))) (i) the actual or relative potential for abuse;

    (((2))) (ii) the scientific evidence of its pharmacological effect, if known;

    (((3))) (iii) the state of current scientific knowledge regarding the substance;

    (((4))) (iv) the history and current pattern of abuse;

    (((5))) (v) the scope, duration, and significance of abuse;

    (((6))) (vi) the risk to the public health;

    (((7))) (vii) the potential of the substance to produce psychic or physiological dependence liability; and

    (((8))) (viii) whether the substance is an immediate precursor of a ((substance already)) controlled ((under this Article)) substance.

    (((b) After considering the factors enumerated in subsection (a) the board may issue a rule controlling the substance if it finds the substance has a potential for abuse.

    (c) If the board designates a substance as an immediate precursor, substances which are precursors of the controlled precursor shall not be subject to control solely because they are precursors of the controlled precursor.

    (d) If any substance is designated, rescheduled, or deleted as a controlled substance under federal law and notice thereof is given to the board, the substance shall be similarly controlled under this chapter after the expiration of thirty days from publication in the Federal Register of a final order designating a substance as a controlled substance or rescheduling or deleting a substance, unless within that thirty day period, the board objects to inclusion, rescheduling, or deletion.  In that case, the board shall proceed pursuant to the rule-making procedures of chapter 34.05 RCW.

    (e) Authority to control under this section does not extend to distilled spirits, wine, malt beverages, or tobacco as those terms are defined or used in Title 66 RCW and Title 26 RCW.

    (f) The board shall exclude any nonnarcotic substances from a schedule if such substances may, under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, and under regulations of the drug enforcement administration, and the laws of this state including RCW 18.64.250, be lawfully sold over the counter.))

    (e) If a substance is designated, rescheduled, or deleted as a controlled substance under federal law, the board shall similarly control the substance under this chapter after the expiration of thirty days from the date of publication in the federal register of a final order designating the substance as a controlled substance or rescheduling or deleting the substance or from the date of issuance of an order of temporary scheduling under Section 508 of the federal Dangerous Drug Diversion Control Act of 1984, 21 U.S.C.

    (f) The board, by rule and without regard to the requirements of subsection (a) of this section, may schedule a substance in Schedule I regardless of whether the substance is substantially similar to a controlled substance in Schedule I or II if the board finds that scheduling of the substance on an emergency basis is necessary to avoid an imminent hazard to the public safety and the substance is not included in any other schedule or no exemption or approval is in effect for the substance under Section 505 of the federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, 21 U.S.C. Sec. 355.  Upon receipt of notice under RCW 69.50.--- (section 13 of this act), the board shall initiate scheduling of the controlled substance analog on an emergency basis pursuant to this subsection.  The scheduling of a substance under this subsection expires one year after the adoption of the scheduling rule.  With respect to the finding of an imminent hazard to the public safety, the board shall consider whether the substance has been scheduled on a temporary basis under federal law or factors set forth in subsection (a)(1) (iv), (v), and (vi) of this section, and may also consider clandestine importation, manufacture, or distribution, and, if available, information concerning the other factors set forth in subsection (a)(1) of this section.  A rule may not be adopted under this subsection until the board initiates a rule-making proceeding under subsection (a) of this section with respect to the substance.  A rule adopted under this subsection must be vacated upon the conclusion of the rule-making proceeding initiated under subsection (a) of this section with respect to the substance.

    (((d))) (e) A valid prescription or lawful order of a practitioner, in order to be effective in legalizing the possession of controlled substances, must be issued in good faith for a legitimate medical purpose by one authorized to prescribe the use of such controlled substance.  An order purporting to be a prescription not in the course of professional treatment is not a valid prescription or lawful order of a practitioner within the meaning and intent of this chapter; and the person who knows or should know that ((he)) the person is filling such an order, as well as the person issuing it, can be charged with a violation of this chapter.

    (((e) A controlled substance included in Schedule V shall not be distributed or dispensed other than for a medical purpose.))
