Can I buy 7-OH online and have it shipped to Nevada?

Shipping to Nevada is generally permitted for products that comply with state regulations, including age-verification and potency limits. Retailers selling non-compliant products into Nevada may be in violation of state law regardless of where the sale originates.

Is kratom the same as 7-hydroxymitragynine in Nevada?

Not exactly. Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is the plant; 7-hydroxymitragynine is one of its active alkaloids, which can also be concentrated or semi-synthesized to much higher potencies than occur naturally. Nevada's laws may treat the natural leaf, its alkaloids, and concentrated/synthetic 7-OH differently — see the Legal at a Glance panel above for the specifics that apply here.

What is the minimum age to buy 7-OH in Nevada?

18. Retailers in Nevada are required to verify age before sale. Sales to anyone under 18 can result in licensing consequences for the seller.

What happens if I already bought 7-OH and Nevada's law changes?

Laws typically distinguish between sale (prohibited for retailers immediately) and personal possession (often given a grace period, though not always). When Nevada has changed status in the past, state agencies have usually issued guidance to consumers and retailers. Check the most recent state guidance linked in the Sources section before assuming an existing purchase remains legal.
