    Mississippi Drug Laws: Key Takeaways

    • Mississippi classifies controlled substances into five schedules (I through V) under the Uniform Controlled Substances Law, Miss. Code Ann. § 41-29-113 through § 41-29-121, following the federal scheduling framework.
    • Possession of a Schedule I or II substance under Miss. Code Ann. § 41-29-139 is tiered by weight: less than 0.1 gram is a misdemeanor (up to 1 year, $1,000 fine), while 0.1–2 grams is a felony (up to 3 years, $50,000 fine), and 2–10 grams carries up to 8 years and a $250,000 fine.
    • Trafficking in 30 grams or more of a Schedule I or II substance (except marijuana) triggers a mandatory minimum of 10 years with no parole, and aggravated trafficking of 200 grams or more carries a mandatory minimum of 25 years to life under § 41-29-139.
    • Mississippi has a medical cannabis program enacted in 2022 under the Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act (SB 2095), with qualified patients allowed up to 3.5 grams of flower or 1 gram of concentrate per day and 3 ounces of flower per month. Recreational marijuana remains illegal, though first-offense possession of 30 grams or less is decriminalized to a $250 fine.
    • The Mississippi Medical Emergency Good Samaritan Act (Miss. Code Ann. § 41-29-149.1) provides immunity from arrest and prosecution for drug violations for persons who seek medical assistance during a drug overdose in good faith.
    • DUI involving drugs is prosecuted under Miss. Code Ann. § 63-11-30 (Implied Consent Law), and a first offense carries a fine of $250–$1,000, up to 48 hours in jail, a 120-day nonadjudication program or license suspension, and mandatory attendance at a victim impact panel.
    • Mississippi operates intervention courts (drug courts) under Miss. Code Ann. § 9-23-1 et seq., which offer judicially supervised treatment as an alternative to incarceration for non-violent drug-driven offenses, with successful completion potentially leading to expungement.

    Mississippi Drug Law Overview

    Mississippi drug laws are codified primarily in the Uniform Controlled Substances Law, Miss. Code Ann. Title 41, Chapter 29, Article 3 (§§ 41-29-101 through 41-29-191). The state classifies controlled substances into five schedules (I through V) under §§ 41-29-113 through 41-29-121, generally following federal scheduling guidelines. Mississippi draws significant distinctions in possession penalties based on the weight or dosage units of the substance involved. Under Miss. Code Ann. § 41-29-139, simple possession of Schedule I or II substances below 0.1 gram is a misdemeanor, while larger amounts trigger escalating felony penalties. Sale, manufacture, and distribution of controlled substances carry substantially higher penalties, and trafficking thresholds — 30 grams or more for Schedule I/II substances — invoke mandatory minimum sentences of 10 to 40 years with no possibility of parole or probation. Mississippi legalized medical cannabis in February 2022 through the Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act (Senate Bill 2095), signed by Governor Tate Reeves. The first licensed dispensary sales began in January 2023, and over 52,000 patients have enrolled in the program as of 2025. The Mississippi Medical Cannabis Program (MMCP) is administered by a dedicated state agency and allows qualifying patients to purchase limited quantities from licensed dispensaries. Recreational marijuana remains illegal, but Mississippi has partially decriminalized first-offense possession of 30 grams or less, reducing it to a fine-only offense of up to $250. However, possession of drug paraphernalia — including the container holding the marijuana — remains a misdemeanor carrying up to 6 months in jail. Driving under the influence of drugs is prosecuted under the Implied Consent Law, Miss. Code Ann. § 63-11-30, which prohibits operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of any substance that impairs driving ability or any drug unlawful to possess under the Controlled Substances Law. Mississippi has enacted both a Good Samaritan overdose law (§ 41-29-149.1) and an Emergency Response and Overdose Prevention Act (§ 41-29-319) to address the opioid crisis, providing immunity protections for persons who seek help during overdose emergencies and for those who administer naloxone.

    Is Drug Possession a Felony in Mississippi?

    Mississippi's possession penalties are governed by Miss. Code Ann. § 41-29-139 and are structured around the drug's schedule and the weight or dosage units involved. Schedule I and II Substances (§ 41-29-139(c)): Penalties escalate by weight. Less than 0.1 gram (or fewer than 2 dosage units) is a misdemeanor punishable by up to 1 year in jail and a $1,000 fine. From 0.1 gram to less than 2 grams (or 2–9 dosage units) is a felony with up to 3 years in prison and up to $50,000 in fines. From 2 grams to less than 10 grams (or 10–19 dosage units) carries up to 8 years and $250,000. From 10 grams to less than 30 grams (or 20–39 dosage units) carries up to 20 years and $500,000. Schedule III, IV, and V Substances: Possession penalties for Schedule III–V substances are generally lower. Simple possession of Schedule III substances is punishable by up to 5 years and $5,000. Schedule IV carries up to 3 years and $3,000, and Schedule V carries up to 1 year and $1,000. Marijuana (§ 41-29-139(c)): First-offense possession of 30 grams or less has been decriminalized to a fine-only offense of up to $250. Possession of 30–250 grams is a felony with up to 3 years and $3,000. Amounts above 250 grams carry escalating penalties up to 4–16 years for 500 grams to 1 kilogram. Drug Paraphernalia (§ 41-29-139(d)): Possession of drug paraphernalia is a misdemeanor punishable by up to 6 months in jail and a $500 fine. Notably, the bag or container holding marijuana qualifies as paraphernalia, so even a decriminalized marijuana possession can result in a separate criminal charge for the container. Subsequent Offenses: Second and subsequent drug convictions may carry enhanced penalties. Under § 41-29-147, a person previously convicted of any drug felony who commits a subsequent drug offense may receive up to twice the term of imprisonment and fine authorized for the first offense. Dosage Unit Definition: One dosage unit equals one tablet, capsule, or one milliliter of liquid solution. For LSD, one dosage unit means one stamp, square, dot, or microdot.

    Mississippi Drug DUI / DWI Laws

    Mississippi prosecutes impaired driving under the Implied Consent Law, Miss. Code Ann. § 63-11-30. The statute prohibits operating a motor vehicle on public roads while under the influence of intoxicating liquor, any drug or controlled substance unlawful to possess under the Mississippi Controlled Substances Law, or any other substance that impairs the person's ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. The legal BAC limit is 0.08% for adults and 0.02% for drivers under 21. First Offense DUI (§ 63-11-30(2)(a)): Fine of $250 to $1,000, up to 48 hours in jail (or 48 hours of community service in lieu of jail), attendance at a victim impact panel, and completion of an alcohol safety education program. For drug-impaired driving specifically, the court may order a 120-day nonadjudication program with drug testing at least every 30 days (at the offender's expense), or a 120-day license suspension. Second Offense DUI (within 5 years): Fine of $600 to $1,500, mandatory minimum 5 days in jail up to 1 year, community service of 10 days to 1 year, license suspension for 2 years, and mandatory substance abuse treatment. An ignition interlock device may be required. Third Offense DUI (within 5 years): Fine of $2,000 to $5,000, mandatory minimum 1 year in jail up to 5 years, license suspension for 5 years, vehicle seizure, and mandatory substance abuse treatment program. Fourth or Subsequent Offense DUI: Classified as a felony. Fine of $2,000 to $10,000, mandatory minimum 2 years in state penitentiary up to 10 years, permanent license revocation, and vehicle forfeiture. Aggravated DUI (§ 63-11-30(5)): A person who causes the death of another while driving under the influence is guilty of DUI death, punishable by 5 to 25 years in prison. DUI Child Endangerment (§ 63-11-30(13)): A person over 21 who commits DUI while transporting a child under 16 is guilty of the separate offense of DUI child endangerment. Implied Consent (§ 63-11-5): Any person operating a motor vehicle in Mississippi is deemed to have given consent to chemical testing. Refusal to submit to testing results in a 90-day license suspension for a first refusal and 1 year for subsequent refusals. Zero Tolerance for Minors: Drivers under 21 with a BAC of 0.02% or more are subject to license suspension.

    Mississippi Marijuana Laws

    Status: medical
    Mississippi legalized medical cannabis on February 2, 2022, when Governor Tate Reeves signed Senate Bill 2095 (the Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act) into law. The first licensed dispensary sales began in January 2023. As of 2025, over 52,000 patients are enrolled in the Mississippi Medical Cannabis Program (MMCP). Qualifying Conditions: The program covers over 20 qualifying conditions, including cancer, epilepsy, PTSD, chronic pain, multiple sclerosis, Crohn's disease, Parkinson's disease, HIV/AIDS, sickle cell disease, spinal cord injuries, ALS, and terminal illness with a life expectancy of less than one year, among others. Patient Purchase Limits: Qualified patients may purchase up to 3.5 grams of cannabis flower or up to 1 gram of cannabis concentrate per day. Monthly limits are set at 3 ounces of cannabis flower per month. Medical Cannabis Equivalent Units (MMCEUs) are used to standardize purchases across product forms. Patient Registration: Patients must be assessed by a participating practitioner who verifies a qualifying medical condition and provides written certification. The patient then applies online for a registry identification card within 60 days of certification. The Mississippi State Department of Health issues the cards. 2025 Program Updates: As of July 1, 2025, one MMCEU for infused products equals one gram of total THC. SB 2748 (2025) eliminated the requirement for in-person initial assessments for homebound or bedbound patients, allowing telehealth certifications for those patients. Recreational Marijuana: Recreational marijuana remains illegal in Mississippi. However, first-offense possession of 30 grams or less has been decriminalized to a fine-only offense of up to $250 under § 41-29-139. Possession of drug paraphernalia associated with marijuana use remains a misdemeanor (up to 6 months, $500 fine). Cultivation: Home cultivation of marijuana is not permitted, even for registered medical cannabis patients. All medical cannabis must be purchased from a licensed dispensary.

    Mississippi Good Samaritan LawYes - Active

    Mississippi has enacted the Mississippi Medical Emergency Good Samaritan Act under Miss. Code Ann. § 41-29-149.1, providing immunity protections for persons involved in drug overdose emergencies. Key Provisions: Any person who in good faith seeks medical assistance for someone experiencing or believed to be experiencing a drug overdose shall not be arrested, charged, or prosecuted for a drug violation if the evidence of the violation was obtained as a result of seeking that medical assistance. The immunity also extends to the person experiencing the overdose — a person who is the subject of a good-faith request for medical assistance shall not be arrested, charged, or prosecuted for a drug violation. Limitations: The Good Samaritan immunity applies only to simple possession of small amounts of controlled substances. Individuals may still be held liable for possession of larger quantities (as little as 5 grams), drug manufacturing, drug distribution or sale, outstanding warrants, probation or parole violations, and other non-drug offenses discovered at the scene. Emergency Response and Overdose Prevention Act (§ 41-29-319): In addition to the Good Samaritan Act, Mississippi enacted § 41-29-319, which provides civil and criminal immunity for practitioners who prescribe opioid antagonists (naloxone), pharmacists who dispense them, and any person — including emergency medical technicians, firefighters, and law enforcement officers — who administers an opioid antagonist in good faith to someone experiencing an apparent opioid overdose. Practical Impact: These laws work together to reduce barriers to calling 911 during overdose emergencies and to expand the number of people who can legally carry and administer naloxone. The Mississippi State Department of Health actively promotes awareness of these protections as part of its overdose prevention efforts.

    Mississippi Naloxone (Narcan) Access

    Mississippi has taken several steps to expand access to naloxone (brand name Narcan), the opioid overdose reversal medication. Statewide Standing Order: Mississippi has a Naloxone Statewide Standing Order (effective March 18, 2025) that allows pharmacies to dispense naloxone to individuals without requiring a patient-specific prescription. This standing order enables any person to walk into a participating pharmacy and obtain naloxone. Emergency Response and Overdose Prevention Act (§ 41-29-319): This statute authorizes practitioners to prescribe opioid antagonists and grants civil and criminal immunity to practitioners who prescribe naloxone, pharmacists who dispense it, and any person who administers it in good faith during an apparent opioid overdose. Emergency medical technicians, firefighters, and law enforcement officers are specifically authorized to administer naloxone as clinically indicated. Free Naloxone by Mail: The Mississippi State Department of Health offers naloxone kits at no charge, delivered by mail to individuals who request them. This program removes cost as a barrier to access. Over-the-Counter Availability: Following FDA approval of over-the-counter Narcan nasal spray in March 2023, naloxone is also available without any prescription at pharmacies throughout Mississippi at retail price, or through insurance with a co-pay. Community Distribution: The Mississippi State Department of Health and organizations such as Stand Up Mississippi coordinate community-based naloxone distribution programs, training events, and harm reduction outreach to expand awareness and availability. Insurance Coverage: Naloxone is covered under Mississippi's Medicaid program (Mississippi Division of Medicaid) and most private insurance plans.

    Mississippi Drug Courts & Diversion Programs

    Mississippi operates a system of intervention courts (formerly called drug courts) authorized under Miss. Code Ann. § 9-23-1 et seq. The 2019 Criminal Justice Reform Act (H.B. 1352) renamed drug courts, mental health courts, and veterans' courts as 'intervention courts' and established the State Intervention Courts Advisory Committee to coordinate policy and operations. Types of Intervention Courts: Mississippi's intervention court system includes adult drug courts, juvenile drug courts, mental health courts, veterans treatment courts, and DUI courts. These courts handle drug crimes and drug-driven offenses, including DUI and probation violations related to substance abuse. Eligibility: To be eligible for intervention court, a participant generally must have a diagnosed substance use disorder, the current offense must be drug-related or drug-driven, and the participant cannot have felony convictions for crimes of violence. Each judicial district may have additional eligibility criteria. Program Structure: Participants undergo judicially supervised treatment programs that typically include regular drug and alcohol testing, mandatory attendance at counseling and treatment sessions, regular court appearances before the intervention court judge, compliance with individualized treatment plans, and community supervision. Programs generally last 12 to 24 months. Medication-Assisted Treatment: All intervention courts are required to make court-approved medication-assisted treatment (MAT) available to participants in accordance with recommendations from the National Drug Court Institute. This includes medications such as buprenorphine (Suboxone), methadone, and naltrexone (Vivitrol). Outcomes: Successful completion of an intervention court program may result in charges being dismissed and the participant becoming eligible for expungement of their criminal record. This provides a meaningful pathway away from a permanent felony conviction for eligible drug offenders.

    Does Mississippi Have Mandatory Minimums for Drugs?

    Mississippi imposes mandatory minimum sentences for serious drug offenses, particularly trafficking-level quantities. Trafficking — Schedule I or II (§ 41-29-139(f)): Possession of 30 grams or more (or 40+ dosage units) of a Schedule I or II controlled substance (except marijuana and synthetic cannabinoids) constitutes trafficking. The mandatory minimum sentence is 10 years imprisonment, with a maximum of 40 years, and a fine of $5,000 to $1,000,000. This sentence shall not be reduced or suspended, and the person is not eligible for probation or parole. Aggravated Trafficking — Schedule I or II (§ 41-29-139(f)): Possession of 200 grams or more of a Schedule I or II controlled substance (except marijuana and synthetic cannabinoids) constitutes aggravated trafficking. The mandatory minimum sentence is 25 years, with a maximum of life imprisonment, and a fine of $5,000 to $1,000,000. This sentence shall not be reduced or suspended, and the person is not eligible for probation or parole. Trafficking — Schedule III, IV, or V (§ 41-29-139(f)): Possession of 500 grams or more (or 2,500+ dosage units) of a Schedule III, IV, or V controlled substance constitutes trafficking. The same 10-to-40-year mandatory minimum applies with fines of $5,000 to $1,000,000. Subsequent Offense Enhancement (§ 41-29-147): A person convicted of a second or subsequent drug offense may receive up to twice the term of imprisonment and fine authorized for a first offense. This enhancement applies to both possession and distribution offenses. Sale or Transfer to a Minor (§ 41-29-142): An adult at least three years older than the recipient who sells or transfers a controlled substance to a person under 21 faces penalties of up to double the base offense. 2014 and 2018 Reforms: Mississippi reformed its sentencing laws in 2014 and 2018, restructuring sentences for drug offenses, adding prison programming such as education and job training, and eliminating some previously existing mandatory minimums for lower-level offenses. However, trafficking-level mandatory minimums remain firmly in place.

    Treatment Alternatives to Incarceration

    Mississippi offers several treatment-based alternatives to incarceration for persons charged with drug offenses. Intervention Courts (§ 9-23-1 et seq.): The primary treatment alternative is Mississippi's intervention court system, which provides judicially supervised substance abuse treatment for non-violent drug offenders. Participants receive individualized treatment plans, regular drug testing, counseling, and court supervision. Successful completion may result in charge dismissal and eligibility for expungement. All intervention courts are required to offer medication-assisted treatment (MAT). Drug Offender Programs: The Mississippi Department of Corrections (MDOC) operates substance abuse treatment programs for incarcerated individuals, including the Alcohol and Drug Programs within state correctional facilities. These programs offer education, counseling, and relapse prevention training. Nonadjudication for First-Offense Drug DUI: Under § 63-11-30, first-offense drug-impaired drivers may participate in a 120-day nonadjudication program that includes court-ordered drug testing at least every 30 days. If the participant complies with all program terms, the offense may not result in a formal conviction on the person's record. Pretrial Diversion: District attorneys in Mississippi may offer pretrial diversion programs for eligible first-time or low-level drug offenders. Terms typically include substance abuse treatment, regular drug testing, community service, and supervision. Successful completion results in dismissed charges. Community-Based Treatment: Mississippi's Department of Mental Health oversees a network of community mental health centers that provide substance abuse treatment services, including outpatient counseling, intensive outpatient programs, and residential treatment. These services may be ordered as conditions of probation or as part of intervention court participation. Behavioral Health Deflection (Proposed): As of 2025, Mississippi lawmakers are considering a behavioral health deflection program to augment the intervention court system by addressing systemic gaps in care for individuals experiencing behavioral health crises, prioritizing treatment over incarceration at the point of initial law enforcement contact.

    Facing Drug Charges in Mississippi?

    Many Mississippi courts offer treatment-based alternatives to incarceration. Drug court programs, diversion programs, and court-ordered rehab can help you get treatment instead of jail time.

    New Mississippi Drug Laws (2025-2026)

    2022 — Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act (SB 2095): Governor Tate Reeves signed the Mississippi Medical Cannabis Act on February 2, 2022, establishing a comprehensive medical cannabis program. The first dispensary sales began in January 2023, and over 52,000 patients have enrolled as of 2025. 2019 — Criminal Justice Reform Act (H.B. 1352): Renamed drug courts as 'intervention courts,' consolidated oversight under the State Intervention Courts Advisory Committee, and required improved data collection. This followed earlier 2014 and 2018 reforms that restructured drug offense sentences, added prison education and job training programs, and eliminated certain mandatory minimums for lower-level drug offenses. 2025 — Medical Cannabis Program Updates: SB 2748 eliminated the requirement for in-person initial practitioner assessments for homebound or bedbound patients, allowing telehealth certifications. Effective July 1, 2025, one MMCEU for infused products was redefined to equal one gram of total THC. 2025 — Naloxone Statewide Standing Order: A new statewide standing order became effective March 18, 2025, allowing pharmacies to dispense naloxone without an individual prescription, significantly expanding access to the overdose reversal medication. 2025 Legislative Session — Ongoing: The Mississippi Legislature is considering additional criminal justice reform proposals, including a behavioral health deflection program to divert individuals in behavioral health crises to treatment rather than incarceration, and an overhaul of the youth court system. Multiple bills related to cannabis program expansion have been introduced, including HB 611 which passed the House in the 2025 session. Ongoing Trends: Mississippi continues to focus on opioid and fentanyl overdose prevention, naloxone distribution expansion, and evidence-based treatment within the criminal justice system. The medical cannabis program continues to expand with growing patient enrollment and dispensary licensing.
