Proposed ban on 7-OH products hits bipartisan resistance in Missouri Senate • Missouri Independent
Republican state Sen. Mike Henderson believes he has the support to advance a bill that would impose age limits on kratom sales and ban the stronger opioid-like products known as 7-OH.
Rich Stein (he/him)"In the United States, kratom is widely available in forms that are often much stronger than the natural leaves, including pills and extracts that may contain undisclosed ingredients. Because these products are not regulated, consumers cannot be sure what they are taking. Kratom itself has also been linked to potential liver damage."

Cheney City Councilmember LongKratom has been a hot topic of #PublicHealth concern across the state this year. Spokane & Spokane Valley have both now banned the sale of #kratom products within their city limits.
DonBahno 👨🏻💻🥦🍀🇪🇺🏴☠️Občas se dějí zázraky. Vláda nakonec zatím #kratom nezakáže, jak plánoval velký obrblb ze Slovenska, ale napřed vyhodnotí výsledky jeho licencovaného prodeje v ČR.
Národní protidrogový koordinátor Pavel Bém navrhuje posunutí věku pro nákup kratomu z 18 na 21 let. To mi přijde vcelku rozumné. Žádný debilní zákaz, který přinese akorát rozmach černého trhu.
Bohužel nebo bohudík je výhodou/nevýhodou těchhle debilních populistů, že se chovají jak korouhvičky. Najednou neplatí, co bylo vyřčeno předchozí den a naopak.
Politika podle průzkumů veřejného mínění. Jenže problém je v tom, že většina nemusí mít vždy pravdu.

Zase další ukázka drogového populismu - idiotismu. V případě omamných a psychotropních látek, mezi které patří i alkohol, to NIKDY nefunguje tak, že se daná látka zakáže a lidé ji přestanou užívat.
Kde je poptávka, tam je i nabídka. Když není legální trh, který umožňuje kontrolu, bude ilegální trh se všemi jeho negativy.
Dopadne to přesně jako za americké prohibice. Lidi chlastali dál, zvýšila se spotřeba tvrdého alkoholu, vydělala na tom akorát mafie.
Nyní se zakáže kratom, jeho prodej se přesune na černý trh. Dealeři si namastí kapsu a kromě kratomu budou mít v nabídce i těžší substance.
Ale co taky jiného čekat od debila, co nikdy nepřečetl žádnou knížku a mléko se podle něj tvoří v kravském žaludku a Měsíc je planeta.
😷nio> December 11, 2025: (COLUMBUS, Ohio)—Following a pause to review potential federal action, Ohio Governor Mike DeWine announced today that he is requesting the Ohio Board of Pharmacy to immediately designate all synthetic kratom compounds and other dangerous compounds derived from the active ingredient in Kratom as illegal drugs through emergency rule. The Governor is also asking the Board of Pharmacy to pursue rules through the regular rulemaking process for scheduling mitragynine (natural kratom).

> Feb 12, 2026: At the request of Gov. Mike DeWine, the Ohio Board of Pharmacy recently enacted an emergency rule banning the distribution, possession, and sale of kratom-related products in the name of public health. In practice, however, the rule is more likely to endanger public health than protect it.
> Unfortunately, decades of experience with the failed “war on drugs” demonstrates that such bans rarely work. Instead, bans tend to push drug use underground, creating black markets and making drugs more dangerous – not to mention criminalizing users.

PSA: prohibition is racist, classist, and bad. May I suggest that the suicide hotline included in the letterhead is partly an indication drug prohibitions are not going well, thus far? And we do not need more of them?
