Every state and the federal government has drug laws against the possession, manufacture, distribution, and abuse of a controlled substance, such as narcotics, marijuana, and other illegal drugs, and laws against the abuse of prescription drugs. The Controlled Substances Act provides authority and criteria for classification of substances. The most serious drug offenses, i.e., those receiving the greatest punishments, include producing illegal drugs, manufacturing drugs, and selling drugs; although, the ultimate punishment for a drug offense depends upon the quantity of the drugs, its classification under the federal drug law schedules, and the purpose for its possession.
