Attorney general discusses 7-OH ban at Tampa General Hospital

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier announced Monday that the state is expanding a 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) emergency ban at a Tampa General Hospital media event. The substance has been sold at gas stations and retail stores.

“Our chemists have analysed that it can be 13 times or more potent than morphine,” Uthmeier said at the gathering. “Since 2013, Florida medical examiners have linked at least 587 overdose deaths to 7-OH and related chemical compounded drugs.”
