[Article] HHS Recommended that DEA Make Kratom Schedule I

[bubbles]

Hi Guys!

I hope everyone is having a happy friday!

I am not sure yet what this means but it was posted to the reddit. (If it is already posted here, I apologize. I swears it I searched).

• HHS recommended that the DEA make kratom a Schedule I drug, like LSD or heroin
  
  r/kratom discussion about it the article

Although there’s been no mention of kratom in the DEA’s annual assessment of drug risks in the United States

• Kratom Missing From DEA Report on Drug Threats

I am not saying that this means a ban is imminent. The reason this is news now is that it accidentally got included with some other documents as part of a FOIA request.

Thanks, guys!

They need to stop doing weird things.

Isn’t the FDA just a division of HHS? Why a separate recommendation to the DEA?

This is a one year old article that was released by the freedom of information act. Its the FDA trying to put a bad rap on kratom so people will see it. dont worrie we already know about this like i said it is a year old just keep fighting and please donate to the A.K.A even if its just a dollar!!!

Why is r/kratom allowing this YEAR old letter to be posted as current info?

Why is r/kratom fear-mongering and spreading FUD?

There not doing it on purpose its all part of the FDA 'S PLAN WE ARE MESSING WITH THERE MONEY AND THERE NOT GOING TO STOP THE WHOLE THING MAKES ME SICK

Why is r/kratom allowing this YEAR old letter to be posted as current info?

Because the documents were just procured by a news organization a few days ago, that's why.

We are not too spread this crap thats what they want us to do .dont share.

If r/kratom wanted us to read this, maybe r/kratom shouldn't have banned half the people that are here. The end.
