Federal Register

Definition

The daily journal of the United States government in which agency rules, proposed rules and notices are published; a citation such as 91 FR 54948 means volume 91, page 54948. Every federal action on kratom alkaloids appears there first, which is why this store's watcher reads its DEA and FDA feed every day.

The Federal Register publishes each business day. A citation gives the volume and the first page: 91 FR 54948 is the 2026-08-26 temporary scheduling order, printed in volume 91, number 164, at pages 54948 to 54956 (91 FR 54948). Each document also carries an FR Doc. number (2026-17429 for that order) and a docket number (DEA-1644), and is classed as a rule, a proposed rule or a notice. The same issue can carry several related documents; the comment-period extension for the 7-OH notice published the same day (FR Doc. 2026-17409).

This store's Federal Register watcher queries the public API daily for DEA and FDA documents matching its keyword list (7-hydroxymitragynine, mitragynine, kratom, Mitragyna speciosa, pseudoindoxyl, MGM-15, MGM-16, kava, kavalactone, Amanita muscaria, muscimol, tianeptine). A rule with an effective date schedules a removal; a proposed rule or notice creates an alert. The log is public on the legality hub.
