Street names: Kratom shot, OPMS, Kratom extract, Kava-bar shots, Liquid kratom
Overdose? Act now. Call emergency services — say "unresponsive, not breathing". Give naloxone for opioid-like signs. Hotlines
⚡What it does
- Concentrated mitragynine + 7-OH — several times stronger per swallow than leaf powder
- Fast onset (10–20 min liquid): opioid-like warmth, sedation, pain relief; small-dose stimulation in some products
- The format driving the poison-center call surge: people drink a whole bottle thinking it's a wellness shot
⚠Key risks
- DOSE CLIFF: one bottle can equal many grams of leaf — the difference between 'fine' and 'sick' is a sip
- Dependence comes fast with extracts; withdrawal is opioid-grade and hits casual users who thought it was 'just a supplement'
- 7-OH concentration is the regulatory red line — several states now ban concentrated products specifically
- Unlabeled adulteration: some shots have tested with added 7-OH or even synthetic opioids
✚Overdose signs
- Severe vomiting then sedation, slow breathing, confusion
- Combined with alcohol or benzos it turns respiratory-depression dangerous — naloxone may help in mixed opioid overdoses; call emergency services
