Does Kratom use lead to Drug Addiction
Side effects similar to opiates
The side effects of the Kratom drug have been described as very similar to those of opiates, which include nausea, chills, muscle aches, and goosebumps. Other effects include constipation, insomnia, darkening of the skin, and nervousness in long term users, which leads one to question how much Kratom is a good thing, and if you can tell a user by changed skin color. People who take the Kratom leaf regularly report that they start by feeling euphoria but continued use leads to dependence and anxiety. Medical professionals do not have a lot of information on this drug, which is added into many herbal remedies and can be bought cheaply in smoke shops and similar stores.
