From the New Mexico Press Release: New Mexico Department of Justice Warns of Risks Associated with Kratom Products
“The information about kratom’s impact, particularly on young people, is extremely concerning,” said Attorney General Raúl Torrez. “Consumers should understand that these products can have highly addictive effects similar to opioid narcotics. We also want to hear directly from New Mexicans about their experiences with kratom, including those who have already been harmed or sought rehabilitation. Our goal is to ensure families have the facts they need to protect their loved ones.”

While some local communities are beginning to explore measures to address the sale and use of kratom products, Attorney General Torrez emphasized that the NMDOJ serves as the chief consumer protection agency for the entire state and is focused on holding bad actors accountable where necessary. “As a statewide agency, we’re looking at the broader impact on New Mexicans,” said Torrez. “We want to understand how these products are being marketed, how they have and are affecting consumers, and whether any deceptive or predatory practices are contributing to harm. Our responsibility is to protect all New Mexicans, wherever they live.”
