The purpose of this article is to decrease the availability of ephedrine derived from nonprescription drug products and other cold and allergy medications commonly used as a precursor in the production of methamphetamine. The Arizona State Legislature has yet to regulate ephedrine products which are combined with other active ingredients. These provisions are to supplement, not to substitute A.R.S. § 13-3401.01 et seq.
