MS HB1750

Kratom (mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine), including its salts, isomers, sulfate, free acid, and derivatives, would be added to Schedule III of Mississippi's Uniform Controlled Substances Act

Schedule III classification places kratom alongside substances like ketamine, anabolic steroids, buprenorphine, and certain codeine preparations with moderate to low potential for dependence

The amendment would subject kratom to the same regulatory controls, prescribing requirements, and criminal penalties that apply to other Schedule III controlled substances in Mississippi

Effective date is July 1, 2026
