7-OH and kratom analogues are illegal to sell in Alabama. Here's what to know.

7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH), MGM-15, and other semi-synthetic kratom analogues are Schedule I controlled substances in Alabama — and, separately, so is plain kratom (mitragynine) under the same 2016 law. This site is an educational resource: it explains what the law actually covers and points you to the real agencies that can act on a report.

What's actually illegal

Alabama Code § 20-2-23 lists both mitragynine (plain kratom's main alkaloid) and 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) as Schedule I controlled substances — alongside semi-synthetic analogues derived from 7-OH, like MGM-15 and mitragynine pseudoindoxyl. Selling any of these is a felony. See About for the full breakdown.

Where to actually report it
