New measures to take action against the illegal importation, distribution, and use of fentanyl precursors are now in effect. Controlling these substances under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act and its regulations addresses risk to public health and safety by allowing law and border enforcement to take action against the illegal importation, production, and sale of these substances to illegal markets. Anyone wanting to conduct legitimate activities with the analogues and derivatives of 4-piperidone must apply to Health Canada for authorization.

New measures to take action against the illegal importation, distribution, and use of fentanyl precursors are now in effect. Controlling these substances under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act and its regulations addresses the risk to public health and safety by empowering law and border enforcement to combat their illegal importation, production, and sale. This is a crucial step towards safeguarding our communities, particularly our vulnerable children, from the devastating impacts of fentanyl. Something that can save lives is happening, and for that, we are deeply grateful.
