Bill > SB891

This bill modifies the Oklahoma Kratom Consumer Protection Act by updating definitions and labeling requirements for kratom products. The bill adds a new definition for "independent testing laboratory" to ensure that labs testing kratom products are unbiased and nationally accredited. It refines definitions of kratom leaf, kratom leaf extract, and kratom products, removing some technical specifications about alkaloid ratios while maintaining restrictions on synthesized substances and 7-hydroxymitragynine levels. The bill removes the requirement for powdered kratom products to include a calibrated measuring device and simplifies some labeling requirements. Vendors are still prohibited from selling kratom products to individuals under 18 and must ensure products are not contaminated or contain synthesized alkaloids. The bill updates the mandatory label statement about FDA evaluation, replacing the previous prohibition on therapeutic claims with a standard disclaimer. Additionally, when requested by the State Department of Health, vendors must now provide test results from an independent testing laboratory located in the United States. The changes aim to provide clearer regulations and consumer protections for kratom product sales in Oklahoma, with the bill set to become effective on November 1, 2025.
