Kratom and its effects on an organism
Original language description
Both the Mitragyna speciosa and products manufactured from its leaves are named kratom. The dry material of kratom contains a number of biologically active alkaloids, including two abundant substances mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine that interact with opioid receptors. Kratom is used as an anesthetic, antitussive, antidiarrheal, and wound-healing drug. Adverse effects can follow the excessive intake of kratom, and it is also considered an addictive substance in some countries. This review describes kratom's origin, biological effects' mechanism, its therapeutic and adverse impact on an organism, and the legislative aspects of its sale are described here.
