California Cracks Down on Kratom

California Cracks Down on Kratom

Published 2 weeks ago
Description

Californias Attorney General and Department of Public Health have filed a complaint against Ashlynn Marketing Group, a San Diego company producing kratom products, for violating state law. Kratom, derived from a Southeast Asian tree, is marketed as a remedy for pain, anxiety, and addiction, but its been linked to deadly overdoses in Los Angeles County. The FDA aims to classify it as a controlled substance. Officials warn of addiction, severe health issues, and overdoses, with LA County reporting at least six kratom-related deaths in 2025. LA and Riverside counties have implemented restrictions, and over a dozen states have banned or regulated kratom. As legal actions intensify, expect stricter controls to prevent further harm.
