Gov. Jared Polis Signs New Regulations for Kratom in Colorado

On Thursday, Governor Jared Polis signed into law new regulations for the herbal remedy kratom, bringing resolution to a public lobbying campaign that included the family of an individual who passed away from kratom-related complications. The legislation, known as Senate Bill 72, prohibits the sale of kratom as candy or in a manner that appeals to children. It also increases labeling requirements, restricts the concentration of kratom’s active compound, 7-hydroxymitragynine, and bans the manufacture and distribution of synthetic and semi-synthetic kratom.

Kratom, a traditional herbal remedy from Southeast Asia, is believed by some to have a variety of uses, such as a stimulant, pain reliever, or treatment for depression, anxiety, and opioid withdrawal. However, the health risks of kratom remain uncertain, according to the Harvard Medical School, due to a lack of independent research.

In his signing statement, Governor Polis emphasized the importance of informed choices with common-sense labeling requirements. The law is named after Daniel Bregger, a Denver resident who tragically passed away in 2021 after consuming kratom and diphenhydramine.

Senator Kyle Mullica, a sponsor of the bill, stated that the new law is a step in the right direction but acknowledges the need for further regulation in the future. The industry, however, has expressed concerns about the new law, arguing that it creates confusion and loopholes for those seeking to bypass the regulations.

Despite the pushback from some industry members, the new regulations aim to provide better consumer protection and oversight for kratom products in Colorado. It is a significant development in the ongoing debate surrounding the herbal remedy’s safety and usage.
