Florida restricts "7-OH' kratom product linked to addiction, overdoses, hundreds of deaths

A substance sold openly at gas stations and smoke shops across Florida is now facing emergency restrictions after being linked to addiction, overdoses and hundreds of deaths. State regulators have issued an emergency rule targeting "7-OH," a potent chemical derived from kratom that experts say is far more dangerous than many realize. Mike McCormick with Florida Poison Control and Pattie Wheeler, whose son Wyatt died after using kratom, joined News4JAX to discuss the dangers and the new restrictions.
