Understanding the Kratom Ban in Arkansas

In February 2016, Arkansas classified kratom as a Schedule I controlled substance, making its use, sale, and possession illegal. The ban was driven by safety concerns, lack of FDA regulation, and public health risks. Despite this, advocacy groups are working to reverse the ban, promoting regulated access to kratom. Increased awareness and legislative efforts could potentially lead to a reconsideration of kratom's legal status in Arkansas.

For example, kratom is banned in San Diego, California; Denver, Colorado; Jerseyville, Illinois; Sarasota County, Florida; and Union County, Mississippi.
