of the improper purpose to which such substance was to be put. Insofar as substances
containing said substances are possessed, sold, dispensed, compounded or delivered for
licit purposes, i.e., other than to produce a stimulant, depressant or hallucinogenic effect
upon the higher functions of the central nervous system by breathing, inhaling, sniffing
or drinking, such substances are expressly not restricted and neither the regulatory provisions, including but not limited to record keeping, licensing and the writing of prescriptions nor the criminal sanctions and proscriptions of this chapter shall apply.
