AMMAN — Brorphine, Metonitazene, and
Eutylone have been classified as narcotics and psychotropic substances by the
Jordanian Food and Drug Administration (JFDA), and are now covered by the
Narcotics and Psychotropic Substances Law No. 23 of 2016, according to the
Jordan News Agency, Petra.
JFDA Director-General Nizar Mhaidat said the
decision was taken after having conducted scientific research into the
substances and their narcotic effects on humans, which calls for precaution and
control in order to prevent their use for illegal purposes.
He added that the decision is consistent with an
International Narcotics Control Board’s recommendation, and stems from the
JFDA’s commitment to reviewing narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances
issued globally on regular basis.
