Kratom Retailer Demands Action Against ‘Unsafe’ 7-OH Products

A Kratom retailer in Arizona is demanding enhanced regulations concerning 7-hydroxymitragynine, commonly referred to as 7-OH. This compound, derived from the kratom plant, has raised concerns due to its opioid-like effects.

Available in various forms such as tablets, extracts, and vapes, 7-OH can be found in local smoke shops. The retailer emphasizes the need for oversight to ensure consumer safety and responsible usage.

As discussions on regulation intensify, stakeholders are considering how best to manage the sale and distribution of this controversial substance, aiming to balance accessibility with public health concerns.
