Anyone possessing more than 40 g of fentanyl can be prosecuted for a Schedule I offense. Possession of more than 10 g of a fentanyl analog is also a Schedule I offense. The harsher penalties for fentanyl analogs are because all analogs are illegally produced in clandestine laboratories. Possessing less than 40 g of fentanyl or less than 10 g of an analog is a Schedule II offense. 

First-time offense violators who possess 40-399 g of fentanyl mixture can receive not less than five years or more than 40 years in prison if death or serious injury is involved, then not less than 20 years or more than life in prison. This is in addition to a fine of not more than 2 million for an individual. The same penalties apply to 10-99 g of fentanyl analog. For a second offense, the violator can receive not less than 10 years or more than life unless serious injury or death is involved. In this case, the term becomes not less than life in prison. The fine doubles to not more than 4 million for the second offense.
