Understand the essentials

What is kratom?

Kratom, or Mitragyna speciosa, is a tropical tree native to Southeast Asia. Its leaves contain alkaloids including mitragynine.

What does science say?

Researchers are studying kratom's alkaloids, pharmacology, and risks. Research remains incomplete, and no kratom product is FDA-approved for medical use.

Safety and awareness

Kratom can cause adverse effects, dependence, and withdrawal. Combining it with other drugs or medications may increase risks. Pregnant people should avoid it.

Transparency matters

Understanding product testing

Batch-specific independent laboratory reports can provide information about alkaloid content and potential contaminants such as heavy metals and microorganisms. Testing alone does not establish that a product is safe or FDA-approved.
