北达科他州(North Dakota)认为禁止Kratom作为附表1所列药物, North Dakota considers banning kratom as a Schedule 1 drug amid debate over its risks and benefits.

北达科他州正考虑通过众议院第1101号法案禁止具有类似阿片剂效应的东南亚植物Kratom。 North Dakota is considering banning kratom, a Southeast Asian plant with opiate-like effects, through House Bill 1101. 该法案将把Kratom归类为附表1管制物质。 The bill would classify kratom as a Schedule 1 controlled substance. 虽然有些人认为这可能导致使用毒品的难度加大,但另一些人则说,这有助于治疗疼痛,使人远离类阿片。 While some argue it may lead to harder drug use, others say it helps manage pain and weans people off opioids. 众议院司法委员会已经听取了证词,但尚未就法案做出决定。 The House Judiciary Committee has heard testimony but hasn't decided on the bill yet.
