West Virginia has introduced new regulations governing the distribution and sale of kratom and hemp-derived cannabinoid products. As detailed in recent legislation, the state has designated the Commissioner of Agriculture and the WV Alcohol Beverage Control Administration Commissioner to oversee these substances. The bill, Senate Bill 679, promotes increased collaboration and information sharing among state authorities to ensure consumer safety. This move is part of a broader effort to standardize the safety measures for these products at the retail level, addressing potential risks and ensuring compliance with state laws. West Virginia’s proactive approach aims to safeguard public health while accommodating the growing popularity of these natural and therapeutic products.
