Using Kratom for Fentanyl Withdrawal
Kratom has been a wonder drug when it comes to treating Opiate withdrawal symptoms. Though so far it has not been incorporated into the prescribed regimen, yet many people continue to use it for Opiate withdrawal.
The increasing popularity of Kratom as a savior is due to its properties and the fact that it doesn’t cause dependence or tolerance to an extent as severe as Opiates does.
Today I will discuss the role of Kratom for Fentanyl withdrawal. On the streets, fentanyl is commonly called as China Girl, Dance Fever, TNT, Tango, Jackpot, Goodfella, etc.
What is Fentanyl?
What is FentanylFentanyl is rated as one of the most potent synthetic opioid analgesics which act like that of morphine but with a potency higher to that of morphine.
It is a schedule II prescription drug that is given to patients postoperatively and sometimes to deal with chronic pain. It is administered by the form of injection, tablets or a transdermal patch.
Just like heroin and other Opiates, Fentanyl binds to the Opiate receptors present in the brain. It drives up dopamine levels, enhances the activity of the reward areas of the brain, helps in controlling pain, produces mood lifting effects and relaxes one.
At the same time, it also causes constipation, sedation, builds up a tolerance, addiction, respiratory depression resulting in unconsciousness, coma and eventually death.
Why is it important to withdraw from Fentanyl?
It is important to withdraw from Fentanyl because it is a highly potent Opiate that can cause respiratory depression to the extent that can cause immediate death.
It is said that Fentanyl is 50 to 100 times stronger than morphine, which is why it causes severe dependence and can lead to the worst form of addiction.
Usually, people use morphine and heroin to feel the Opiate-like effects, they are unaware of the potency of Fentanyl, and they take doses of Fentanyl which can prove fatal.
How can Kratom help in Fentanyl withdrawal?
How can Kratom help in Fentanyl withdrawalThe alkaloids present in Kratom act on the Opiate receptors present in the brain.
These receptors are of three types; mu, delta and kappa receptors. Mitragynine and 7-hydroxy-mitragynine act on these receptors as agonists, causing the release of dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine.
These neurotransmitters are responsible for alleviating anxiety, elevating mood and boosting energy and confidence levels.
This is much needed during Fentanyl withdrawal because the patient suffers from severe withdrawal symptoms like irritation, low mood, lethargy, fatigue, anxiety, depression, abdominal cramps, constipation, etc.
Kratom also regulated the pain pathway by posting the action of enkephalins, endorphins, and dynorphins. Thus the pain associated with Fentanyl withdrawal is reduced to a considerable extent.
What additional information do I require when using Kratom for Fentanyl withdrawal?
Kratom comes in a variety of strains. Each of these strains has unique properties, and it may be difficult for a person to use all these strains. Therefore, I am providing you with a brief guideline.
The red Kratom strains are considered more stimulating while the White ones are considered sedating. You can incorporate both into your withdrawal regimen to get rid of insomnia as well as get stimulated.
Kratom should be taken on empty stomach or after 2 hours of the meal to increase its absorption.
It shouldn’t be taken with other drugs. It can be taken in the form of powder with cranberry juice or grapefruit juice to increase its absorption.
