Senate Bill No. introduced by S. Novak aims to revise laws concerning intoxicating products intended for human consumption, specifically focusing on kratom. The bill establishes the "Kratom Consumer Protection Act," which prohibits the sale, distribution, or giving away of kratom products unless authorized by the act or other legislative statutes. It also sets the minimum age for purchasing kratom products at 21 years. The bill includes definitions for kratom, kratom extract, kratom processor, and kratom product, and outlines specific restrictions on kratom products, such as limits on the alkaloid composition and prohibitions against synthesized materials and certain dangerous substances.

Additionally, the bill provides exemptions for entities that offer fresh and non-synthesized kratom products, ensuring they cannot be prohibited by state or local governments. The legislation also includes a codification instruction to integrate the new sections into existing law and establishes an effective date of June 1, 2025. Overall, the bill seeks to regulate the kratom market while ensuring consumer safety and access to non-synthesized products.
