What are the three main schedules of controlled substances in New Jersey?

The correct answer identifies the three main schedules of controlled substances recognized in New Jersey as Schedule I, II, and III. These schedules are based on the potential for abuse, accepted medical use, and safety or dependency risks associated with each substance.

Schedule I substances have a high potential for abuse and are not accepted for medical use in the United States. Schedule II substances also have a high potential for abuse but are accepted for medical use, albeit with severe restrictions. Schedule III substances have a lower potential for abuse compared to Schedules I and II and are also accepted for medical use.

It's important to understand the classification of controlled substances as it informs regulations regarding prescription writing, dispensing, and the legal consequences of misuse. Other potential answers may include more schedules or incorrect nomenclature that does not align with New Jersey's official classifications of controlled substances.
