MO HB572

Adds methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV), commonly known as "bath salts," to the Schedule I controlled substances list as a central nervous system stimulant

MDPV is classified alongside other Schedule I stimulants including cathinone, methcathinone, and N-benzylpiperazine

Schedule I substances are defined as having high potential for abuse and no accepted medical use in treatment in the United States

Makes a minor technical correction changing "paragraph" to "subdivision" in the anabolic steroids section of the controlled substances law

Existing penalty provisions for Schedule I controlled substance violations would apply to MDPV offenses
