Possession of a controlled substance classified as Schedule IV refers to the illegal possession of drugs that have a lower potential for abuse compared to Schedule I-III substances, but still carry a risk of dependence and are regulated. Examples include medications like Xanax, Ativan, and Valium. Penalties for possession can vary by jurisdiction but often include fines, probation, or imprisonment. It's important to note that legal consequences can depend on factors such as the amount possessed and prior criminal history.
