About This Event
Senate Bill 45, titled 'Kratom Adjustments', was passed by the Utah Legislature and signed by the Governor on March 26, 2026. The bill directly repeals the existing Kratom Consumer Protection Act and schedules key kratom alkaloids, including 7-hydroxymitragynine and Mitragynine pseudoindoxyl, as Schedule I controlled substances. This makes most kratom products illegal, with only unprocessed whole leaf kratom permitted for sale to adults 21 and over in specialized retailers. This is a definitive shift from a regulated ('RESTRICTED') status to an outright ban on most forms and the classification of its active compounds as highly controlled substances.
