What is the concentration of Dihydrocodeine in a Schedule V (CV) controlled substance in mg/5ml?

  1. 1mg/5ml

  2. 2mg/5ml

  3. 5mg/5ml

  4. 10mg/5ml

The correct answer is: 1mg/5ml

The concentration of Dihydrocodeine in a Schedule V controlled substance is indeed 1mg/5ml. In the context of federal regulations, Schedule V substances can include preparations containing limited amounts of certain narcotics. Dihydrocodeine, when classified under Schedule V, is recognized for its lower potential for abuse compared to more potent narcotics classified in higher schedules. According to the established criteria for controlling these substances, products that contain a combination of Dihydrocodeine typically cannot exceed this specific concentration to maintain their Schedule V classification. This is essential to ensure that while these medications can be useful for treating specific conditions, they are also kept within safe limits to mitigate the risk of misuse.
