What we may say about effects under the law, dosing according to the instructions for use, risks and combinations, kratom forms and what you will not find with us.
Kratom effects: what we may say under the law and what science says
A seller may neither describe nor promise the effects of kratom. We explain what may appear on the packaging, what the scientific literature says about kratom, which myths surround it and why the 'strongest kratom' does not exist.
Kratom dosing according to the instructions for use: 3 g, 10 g per day and a three-day break
The only dosing a seller may state is the instructions for use on the packaging. What they mean, why to weigh instead of estimating by spoon, how to count the daily limit across several products and what to do if it is exceeded.

An objective overview of the risks associated with kratom: possible dependence and withdrawal, side effects described in the literature, dangerous combinations, driving and drug tests, who should avoid it and when to seek help.
