Plant-based medicines are filled with potential. We should be looking for ways to deliver that potential to Americans while mitigating the risks.

A slew of recent news headlines have focused on something that many Americans had never heard of—kratom. A Chicago suburb passed an ordinance to ban it just as Rhode Island took steps toward lifting a ban. National Geographic published a piece about how little information is available on kratom despite its use by about 2 million Americans—quite possibly more, as Newsweek has reported. And Indonesia, a leading exporter, announced its own new regulations.I come at this with a unique perspective.

Given the large number of people who regularly use it and the low number of fatalities, researchers estimate that it is more than 1,000 times less likely to kill than typical prescription opioids. Moreover, in nearly all overdose deaths associated with kratom, it was accompanied by stronger drugs that kill more often, so it is not clear that it actually played a major role or even any at all.
