Alabama Code Title 20. Food, Drugs, and Cosmetics § 20-2-181

(a) The Board of Pharmacy shall, within one year of July 29, 1991, designate by rule listed precursor chemicals.

(b) The Board of Pharmacy may subsequently by rule add chemicals as listed precursor chemicals following the criteria set forth in subdivision (2) of Section 20-2-180, and may also by rule delete any substance previously named as a listed precursor chemical.

At the conclusion of the hearing and the comment period, the State Board of Pharmacy shall publish its decision, which shall be final unless altered by statute.
