What the record says

Nothing in Wis. Stat. Sec. 961.14 (Schedule I) names Amanita muscaria, muscimol, or ibotenic acid (official text fetched 2026-10-07; psilocybin is listed, these are not). No Wisconsin statute or rule names these compounds, so the only reach is general food adulteration law read with FDA's Dec. 18, 2024 determination that A. muscaria and its constituents are unapproved food additives, which does not reach inhaled products such as vapes. Analogue-act reach is remote because muscimol and ibotenic acid are not structurally similar to any Schedule I or II hallucinogen.

**§ 961.14(4) (hallucinogen chapeau)** — "(4) Hallucinogenic substances. Any material, compound, mixture or preparation which contains any quantity of any of the following hallucinogenic substances, including any of their salts, isomers, esters, ethers, and salts of isomers, esters, or ethers that are theoretically possible within the specific chemical designation, in any form contained in a plant, obtained from a plant, or chemically synthesized:"
— Wis. Stat. § 961.14(4), https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/document/statutes/961.14(4) (OFFICIAL — Wisconsin Legislature). Psilocin (s) and Psilocybin (r) are listed; 4-HO-MET is not, and there is no substituted-tryptamine class.
**§ 961.01(12g) (isomer definition — narrows the catch-all)** — "'Isomer' means an optical isomer, but … in ss. 961.14(2)(nd) and (4) and 961.18(2m) 'isomer' includes any positional or geometric isomer."
— Wis. Stat. § 961.01(12g), https://codes.findlaw.com/wi/controlled-substances-ch-961/wi-st-961-01/ (MIRROR: FindLaw). A homolog is neither positional nor geometric, so 4-HO-MET falls outside the class.
