Mitragyna speciosa is a tropical evergreen tree of the Rubiaceae family (coffee family) native to Southeast Asia. [3] It is indigenous to Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, and Papua New Guinea, [4] where its leaves, known as kratom, have been used in herbal medicine since at least the 19th century.

Mitragynine is an indole-based alkaloid and is one of the main psychoactive constituents in the Southeast Asian plant Mitragyna speciosa, commonly known as kratom. [4] It is an opioid that is typically consumed as a part of kratom for its pain-relieving and euphoric effects.
Kratom an herb with opioid-like effects, is sold widely. In the absence of federal regulation, states and cities have been banning it or enacting rules and restrictions. 'Gas-station heroin ...
For example, in 2010, nine people died due to the combination of O-desmethyltramadol, a μ-opioid agonist and analgesic drug, and kratom, an Asiatic medicinal plant containing mitragynine, another μ-opioid agonist, in a synthetic cannabinoid product called "Krypton". [38] And in 2013, AH-7921 was detected in smoking blends in Japan. [39]

Maybe he doesn’t buy me Tiffany jewelry like he did when we were first dating, or wine and dine me at expensive restaurants. That’s okay. When I was 28 and he was 31, bigger was always better ...
7-Hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) is a terpenoid indole alkaloid from the plant Mitragyna speciosa, commonly known as kratom. [2] It was first described in 1994 [3] and is a human metabolite metabolized from mitragynine present in the Mitragyna speciosa. 7-OH binds to opioid receptors like mitragynine, but research suggests that 7-OH binds with greater efficacy.
(+)-Desmetramadol is a G-protein biased μ-opioid receptor full agonist. [5] It shows comparatively far lower affinity for the δ-and κ-opioid receptors. [6] The two enantiomers of desmetramadol show quite distinct pharmacological profiles; [7] both (+) and (−)-desmetramadol are inactive as serotonin reuptake inhibitors, [8] but (−)-desmetramadol retains activity as a norepinephrine ...
