FDA warns companies against claiming an herbal drug can cure opioid addiction

On Tuesday, the FDA alsonot to use products made by one of the companies, KratomNC, because of various microorganisms found in the products the FDA said could potentially cause illness. The agency said on June 14 it recommended the company recall all of its products, but KratomNC has yet to do so.

By marketing kratom as a potential treatment for opioid abuse, the FDA says the two companies — California-based Cali Botanicals and North Carolina-based KratomNC — could prevent people who are addicted to opioids from seeking proper care. Reliance on products that don't work put those who abuse opioids at "greater risk of addiction," the FDA said.
