What the record says

Endomorphin-1 (Tyr-Pro-Trp-Phe-NH2) is not named or scheduled in Arizona. The state has no controlled-substance analogue statute at all; designer drugs are reached only by specific scheduling. Controlling instrument reviewed: None general - closed mimetic-scaffold classes + imitation (A.R.S. 13-3451). Conclusion: no operative instrument reaches a structurally-dissimilar endogenous opioid peptide; status LEGAL at the state controlled-substances level. Residual risk: minimal. Federal floor still applies (Analogue Act human-consumption contingency + FD&C unapproved-new-drug).

Controlling language, verbatim

A.R.S. 13-3451: "'Imitation controlled substance' means a drug, substance or immediate precursor ... which by ... color or dosage unit appearance ... would lead a reasonable person to believe that the substance is a controlled substance." Arizona has no general structure/effect analogue statute (only closed mimetic-scaffold classes). [Appearance only.]
