This law regulates kratom sales by banning sales to those under 21, requiring products to be behind the counter, mandating clear labeling, and prohibiting synthetic alkaloids. This changes the status from 'LEGAL' to 'RESTRICTED'.
Multiple official legislative and news sources from 2025 confirm the signing and effectuation of a law that introduces significant restrictions on kratom sales, changing the state's status from 'LEGAL' to 'RESTRICTED'.
