Understanding Kratom Addiction
What is Kratom?
What Causes Kratom Addiction
Symptoms of Kratom Addiction
Kratom, also known as Mitragyna speciosa, is a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia, particularly in countries like Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia. For generations, its leaves have been used to boost energy and relieve pain. The plant contains active compounds, mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine, which interact with the brain’s opioid receptors to produce various effects.
In recent years, kratom has become popular in the U.S. as a natural option for pain relief and managing anxiety or opioid withdrawal. However, its safety and long-term effects remain under review.
While Kratom addiction is rare, it is possible. There are some risk factors to consider, such as genetics and environmental.
When it comes to genetics, it is widely understood that substance abuse in your family increases your risk of addiction. Researchers have isolated certain genes and gene clusters that can make some people more vulnerable to grappling with the abuse of kratom or other drugs.
Your environment is a key factor as well. The places you spend most of your time and the people you spend your time with can increase your risk of developing a kratom addiction or dependency.
If you or a loved one is addicted or dependent to kratom, you may notice the following symptoms:
Behavioral symptoms: being overly talkative, agitation, anxiousness, depressed mood, emotional detachment from others
Physical symptoms: breathing problems, changes to skin, constipation, inability to experience pain, increased energy, nausea

What should I do if I suspect someone overdosed on Kratom?
If a kratom overdose is suspected, seek immediate medical attention. Overdose symptoms may include severe drowsiness, confusion, or respiratory distress. Provide healthcare providers with information about the amount and form of kratom taken to ensure prompt and effective care.
