Enacts the New York state kratom consumer protection act
This bill establishes New York's first state-level regulations for kratom products. It bans the sale of kratom products containing synthesized or semi-synthetic compounds (like 7-hydroxymitragynine above 2% per serving), dangerous additives, or child-attractive packaging. Kratom processors and retailers must register with the state, provide third-party safety test results (including solvent and heavy metal levels), and comply with FDA food safety guidelines. The law directly affects businesses selling kratom, requiring new documentation and safety checks before sale.
