Kratom Regulation Bill Introduced By Ohio State Representative
House Bill 318 looks to regulate the sale and study of the plant
Four days after the Ohio Board of Pharmacy decided to delay a decision on a proposal to classify kratom as a Schedule 1 controlled substance, a bill to regulate the substance was introduced in the Ohio House of Representatives.
Central Ohio State Rep. Gary Scherer (R-Circleville) introduced House Bill 318 regarding the sale of kratom Tuesday to learn more about the plant and its uses.
“My purpose for introducing this bill is to continue the discussion. Frankly at this point, I don’t know if I would vote for the bill myself, but I think it warrants further study, and we’ll see where that study goes,” Scherer stated in a Facetime interview.
