Bill Summary
Establishes the "Missouri Kratom Consumer Protection Act"
AI Summary
This bill, known as the "Missouri Kratom Consumer Protection Act," establishes regulations for the sale and manufacturing of kratom products in Missouri. Kratom is defined as the plant *Mitragyna speciosa* or any part of it. The act requires finished kratom products to be registered with the Department of Health and Senior Services and to meet specific standards, including being in approved forms like dried leaf, powder, pills, or specific types of beverages, and not being "attractive to children," meaning they cannot resemble candy or cartoon characters. Products must come with detailed labels including dosage instructions, warnings for specific populations, and a statement that the product has not been evaluated by the FDA. Manufacturers, referred to as "processors," must adhere to Current Good Manufacturing Practices, maintain product liability insurance, and provide certificates of analysis from accredited laboratories to ensure products are free from excessive metals, pesticides, and other contaminants. The bill also outlines penalties for violations, including misdemeanor charges and the potential revocation of product registrations, and requires the department to create rules for its implementation.
