What erowid say’s: About Kratom, and Here.
Picture is for info only, you will be getting the dried leaf.....
Kratom (Mitragyna speciosa) is a large tree native to Thailand and Malaysia, first documented by Dutch colonial botanist Korthals. It is botanically related to the Corynanthe, Cinchona and Uncaria genii and shares some similar biochemistry. Other species in the Mitragyna genus are used medicinally in Africa, and also used for their wood.
It is a well established psychoactive drug in its native region, and there is some use elsewhere in the world. The leaves are usually made into a tea, although they are sometimes also chewed or extracted into water and then evaporated into a tar that can be swallowed. Kratom is not often smoked, although this method does provide some effect.
Kratom contains many alkaloids including mitragynine, once thought to be the primary active, and 7-hydroxymitragynine, which is currently the most likely candidate for the primary active chemical in the plant. Although structurally related to yohimbine and tryptamines, its pharmacology is quite different and it seems to act in some ways similarly to opiates, although it seems to also have some stimulant properties similar to yohimbine. Kratom also contains alkaloids found in uña de gato (Uncaria tomentosa) which are powerful immune system enhancers and lower blood pressure, as well as epicatechin, a powerful antioxidant found in dark chocolate and closely related to the ECGC that gives green tea its beneficial effects. Other active chemicals in kratom include raubasine (best known from Rauwolfia serpentina) and some yohimbe alkakoids such as corynantheidine.
Kratom has many potential medicinal uses, possibly being a safer and cheaper replacement for methadone, and as a source of chemicals with a wide range of beneficial activities.
It is commonly reported that at low doses (14 grams for "Commercial Grade"), Kratom acts as a mild stimulant. In higher doses (28+ grams for "Commercial Grade"), its effects more closely resemble opiates, despite its rather different chemical structure.
Kratom does, as one might guess, potentiate opiates. On the other hand, though one might suspect alcohol (itself a depressant) - and therefore other GABA agonists - to do the same with Kratom, some subjective experience reports suggest otherwise this one or this one
Dosage of kratom is said to be around 5grams.
Nausea, dysphoria and vomiting are likely with overly strong doses, so it is important for kratom-tea drinkers to start low to avoid unpleasant effects.
