7-OH (7-hydroxymitragynine) is banned in Florida when concentrated above 400 parts per million on a dry-weight basis, under an emergency rule that places concentrated 7-hydroxymitragynine in Schedule I while exempting mitragynine. The emergency rule is temporary and set to expire on June 30, 2026, and a 2026 bill to schedule 7-hydroxymitragynine permanently did not pass, so readers should confirm current Florida law with official sources before relying on this summary. Federally, the FDA recommended in 2025 that the DEA schedule concentrated 7-OH, but 7-OH remains federally unscheduled as of 2026.

What changed
- — First published from Florida Emergency Rule 2ER25-3 scheduling concentrated 7-hydroxymitragynine; flagged review-needed because the emergency rule is temporary and expires mid-2026. Fla. Emergency Rule 2ER25-3 — adds concentrated 7-Hydroxymitragynine (above 400 ppm dry weight) to Schedule I, § 893.03(1)(a), F.S. (eff. 2025-12-08; temporary)
- — Rechecked against the rule record and the 2026 legislative session: emergency rule 2ER25-3 remains in force but is set to expire June 30, 2026, and the bill to schedule 7-hydroxymitragynine permanently (SB 994) died in committee on March 13, 2026. No permanent rule or statute has replaced it. This entry must be rechecked on or before June 30, 2026 and removed if the rule lapses with nothing in its place. Fla. SB 994 (2026) — Florida Kratom Consumer Protection Act; died in Commerce and Tourism 2026-03-13 (no permanent 7-OH schedule enacted)
