California Kratom Legal Status Update
The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) and Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) have declared foods, dietary supplements, and medical drugs containing kratom or 7-OH illegal to sell or manufacture statewide, moving from a generally legal status with local bans to a state-level restriction on specific product forms.
While kratom was generally legal statewide with local bans, the California Department of Public Health issued a statewide consumer warning on October 24, 2025, declaring that foods, dietary supplements, and medical drugs containing kratom or 7-OH are dangerous and illegal to sell or manufacture. The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control is enforcing this prohibition.
