In the United States, ecstasy is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, meaning it has a high potential for abuse and no accepted medical use. As a result, sale or possession of ecstasy with the intent to sell is typically prosecuted as a felony and can result in up to five years in prison. In certain states, first-time offenders may be eligible for diversion or deferred adjudication programs which can result in the charges being reduced or dismissed if certain requirements are met. Additionally, selling any quantity of ecstasy may result in fines and other court-ordered penalties.
