Kratom, legal in Texas, seized by feds in Illinois. AUSTIN (KXAN) â U.S. Marshals have seized thousands of bottles of dietary supplements containing kratom, a plant with opioid-like effects currently legal and available in the Austin area, according to a FDA news release Wednesday.
Kratom is a controlled substance in 16 countries, and in 2014, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) banned imports and manufacturing of kratom as a dietary supplement. Sometimes, the finished product is mixed into cocktails with other psychoactive drugs such as caffeine and codeine.
