Nebraska does not name MGM-15 (dihydro-7-hydroxymitragynine), 7-OH or mitragynine in its schedules (Neb. Rev. Stat. 28-405, as amended by LB 795 and LB 877 (2026), effective July 18, 2026; the LB 877 committee amendment struck a proposed 7-OH listing), and 28-405 has no provision that automatically adopts federal scheduling. The Kratom Consumer Protection Act defines a kratom product as one that consists of or contains kratom or kratom extract and does not contain any synthesized kratom alkaloids, other synthesized kratom constituents, or synthesized metabolites, and defines synthesized as an alkaloid or alkaloid derivative created in full or in part by directed chemical, physical, or biosynthetic conversion (71-3802). Section 71-3809, as amended by LB 901 (2026), bars selling an adulterated kratom product and deems a product adulterated if it contains any kratom alkaloid or metabolite and does not meet the kratom product definition. A semi-synthetic or synthetic derivative fits the synthesized definition, but whether a product whose active ingredient is this compound contains a kratom alkaloid or metabolite, or is a kratom product at all, turns on reading those definitions. The controlled substance analogue definition (28-401(31)) is keyed to Schedule I or II substances, and Nebraska schedules no kratom alkaloid. Status is restricted pending interpretation. Section 71-3809(2)(b) also deems a kratom product adulterated if it is combined with any substance listed as a controlled substance under the laws of Nebraska or federal law, which reaches a kratom product combined with this federally scheduled compound; a product without leaf material remains a definitional question. Federal Schedule I (temporary, DEA-1644) applies independently.
(5) Kratom product means a food, ingredient, or dietary supplement that: (a) Consists of or contains kratom or kratom extract; (b) Does not contain any synthesized kratom alkaloids, other synthesized kratom constituents, or synthesized metabolites of any kratom constituent; ... (8) Synthesized means an alkaloid or alkaloid derivative that has been created, in full or in part, by directed chemical, physical, or biosynthetic conversion, including, but not limited to, fermentation, recombinant techniques, yeast-derived, or enzymatic techniques, rather than traditional food preparation techniques, such as heating or extracting.
Among Nebraska's 6 neighbors, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, South Dakota and Wyoming are illegal, the same posture as Nebraska.
