As of October 8, 2026, Amanita muscaria / Muscimol is legal to sell at retail in Rhode Island. Not named on Rhode Island schedules or in any state law; edibles reachable only via general food-adulteration law. Controlling source: R.I. Gen. Laws Sec. 21-28-2.08.
Verified October 8, 2026 · confidence: confirmedNothing in R.I. Gen. Laws Sec. 21-28-2.08 (Schedules) names Amanita muscaria, muscimol, or ibotenic acid (official text fetched 2026-10-07; psilocybin is listed, these are not). No Rhode Island statute or rule names these compounds, so the only reach is general food adulteration law read with FDA's Dec. 18, 2024 determination that A. muscaria and its constituents are unapproved food additives, which does not reach inhaled products such as vapes. Analogue-act reach is remote because muscimol and ibotenic acid are not structurally similar to any Schedule I or II hallucinogen.
Among Rhode Island's 2 neighbors, Connecticut and Massachusetts are legal, the same posture as Rhode Island.
