Tracking Pill Presses: New Rules to Fight Illicit Drug Manufacturing.
This law aims to curb the production of dangerous, counterfeit pills, often laced with fentanyl, by tightening control over manufacturing equipment. It requires all tableting and encapsulating machines to be permanently marked with a serial number. This change allows law enforcement to better track and seize equipment used in illegal drug operations, enhancing public safety.
Key points
Manufacturers and sellers must permanently affix serial numbers to all pill press and encapsulating machines.
It is now a federal crime to remove, alter, or possess a machine knowing its serial number has been destroyed.
The goal is to limit the tools available for the mass production of illegal narcotics, improving community security.
