Keep Concentrated Opioids Away From Kids
Our focus is concentrated and chemically enhanced opioid products sold under the kratom name: enhanced 7-OH, MGPI, and the related compounds that will come next.
Keep Them From Kids
A 21+ age limit, ID checks, and no packaging, flavors or marketing aimed at young people.
Enforce the Rules
Real enforcement of the restrictions already on the books, against the companies that make and sell these products.
Test What’s Inside
Independent testing, so no one has to take a label’s word for it.
Label It Honestly
Accurate ingredient and potency disclosure on every product.
Scheduling isn’t the finish line
Scheduling isn’t the finish line. The DEA’s final order could be issued as soon as November 13, 2026, but that date isn’t guaranteed, and some products would still fall below its limits. The DEA says that doesn’t make them safe.4 As the law changes, our work shifts to enforcement and accountability.
We’re not targeting adults who use traditional kratom leaf, and we don’t claim it’s risk-free.

United Against Fentanyl is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that interrupts the use of illicit fentanyl through innovative, bold, and effective initiatives. Kratom Watch is a UAF campaign focused on kratom opioids, the concentrated and lab-made opioids sold under the kratom name, because keeping kids from their first opioid is part of the same fight.
