As of November 12, 2026, 9-OH (9-hydroxycorynantheidine) is in a legal gray area (sold in practice, exposed to an interpretive ban theory) in Indiana. Not named; reached if an 'analog' of the Schedule I synthetic drug mitragynine (IC 35-31.5-2-321); residual mitragynine or 7-OH has no threshold. Controlling source: IC 35-31.5-2-321 'Synthetic drug' (names 7-hydroxymitragynine and mitragynine, including an analog of the compound).
Verified November 12, 2026 (hash check) · confidence: under reviewIs 9-OH Legal? Every state and federal law
IC 35-31.5-2-321(1) defines synthetic drug as a substance containing one or more listed compounds, including an analog of the compound, and the list names 7-hydroxymitragynine and mitragynine; IC 35-48-2-4(g) places synthetic drugs in Schedule I, and IC 35-48-4-2 makes dealing in a Schedule I controlled substance or controlled substance analog an offense. 9-OH is not named, and no 2025 or 2026 act added it (section 321 last amended by P.L.186-2025). 9-OH is mitragynine without the 9-O-methyl group: one structural difference, a hydroxyl in place of a methoxy, which can also be read as an alkyl group deleted from a side chain. Whether that makes it an 'analog' of mitragynine under section 321 is not defined there; IC 35-48-1.1-8 defines a controlled substance analog by a single substitution of one atom or functional group, including an alkyl group added or deleted, plus a narcotic or other central nervous system effect substantially similar to or greater than that of a Schedule I substance, a factual question for the trier of fact (IC 35-48-4-0.5). Reach is interpretive, but the structural test fits closely. Separately, section 321 has no threshold: a 9-OH tablet or liquid that contains any residual mitragynine starting material or any 7-hydroxymitragynine is itself a substance containing a listed compound, which would place the product in Schedule I regardless of the analog question. IC 35-31.5-2-321(13) also covers compounds named by Board of Pharmacy rule under IC 25-26-13-4.1; no such rule naming 9-OH was located. Indiana has no kratom consumer protection act. IC 35-48-2-1(d) directs the board only to recommend similar control after federal scheduling, so federal action is not incorporated automatically. 9-OH is not federally scheduled; federal Analogue Act and FDA exposure are interpretive.
Sec. 321. "Synthetic drug" means the following: (1) A substance containing one (1) or more of the following chemical compounds, including an analog of the compound: ... 7-hydroxymitragynine. ... Mitragynine. ... (c) For purposes of subsection (a), “substantially similar”, as it applies to the chemical structure of a substance, means that the chemical structure of the substance, when compared to the structure of a controlled substance, has a single difference in the structural formula that substitutes one (1) atom or functional group for another, including: ... (g) Synthetic drugs as defined in IC 35-31.5-2-321.
Among Indiana's 4 neighbors, Ohio is illegal; Illinois is restricted; Kentucky is gray area; Michigan is legal.

(g) Synthetic drugs as defined in IC 35-31.5-2-321 . IC 35-48-1.1-8 “Controlled substance analog” Sec. 8. (a) “Controlled substance analog” means a substance that, due to its chemical structure and potential for abuse or misuse, meets the following criteria: (1) The substance is substantially similar to a controlled substance classified under IC 35-48-2 . (2) The substance has a narcotic, stimulant, depressant, or hallucinogenic effect on the central nervous system or is represented or intended to have a narcotic, stimulant, depressant, or hallucinogenic effect on the central nervous system substantially similar to or greater than that of a controlled substance classified under IC 35-48-2 . (b) The definition set forth in subsection (a) does not include: (1) a controlled substance; (2) a legend drug; (3) a substance for which there is an approved new drug application; (4) any compound, mixture, or preparation that contains any controlled substance, that is not for administration to a human being or an animal, and that is packaged in a form or concentration, or with adulterants or denaturants, such that as packaged it does not present any significant potential for abuse; (5) a substance to which an investigational exemption applies under Section 505 of the federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (chapter 675, 52 Stat. 1052 (21 U.S.C. 355)), but only to the extent that conduct with respect to the substance is pursuant to the exemption; or (6) low THC hemp extract. (c) For purposes of subsection (a), “substantially similar”, as it applies to the chemical structure of a substance, means that the chemical structure of the substance, when compared to the structure of a controlled substance, has a single difference in the structural formula that substitutes one (1) atom or functional group for another, including: (1) one (1) halogen for another halogen; (2) one (1) hydrogen for a halogen; (3) one (1) halogen for a hydrogen; or (4) an alkyl group added or deleted: (A) as a side chain to or from a molecule; or (B) from a side chain of a molecule.
