Hey guys and gals, I got a question that seemingly I can not find an answer for. Anyone with experience please reply.
Anyways I'm using tianeptine and kratom together now to fight buprenorphine withdrawal (stopped at .5mg) and it seems to be doing well. The issue I have though, is that kratom HAS caused deaths linked with various substances (seen some articles on pubmed) and I am wondering if tianeptine may have any bad interactions with kratom as I don't want my heart to suddenly stop.
For instance one thought I had is there are definitely stimulating alkaloids in kratom and serotonin effects with tianeptine. Is it possible to get some sort of serotonin syndrome? I almost died from serotonin syndrome once before and it was very far from pleasant.
Also wondering if this combo might make people prone to seizures as I am planning on stopping benzos after the buprenorphine withdrawals subside and I've stopped before from etizolam 6-10mg a day cold turkey, had a grand mal, and now I am supposedly more prone to seizures. This time around I have been steadily at 1mg a day of clonazepam.
-BASICALLY, is there any reason to believe taking 5g kratom 3x a day and 150mg tianeptine 3x a day would cause any bad interactions with each other? And would the combo make someone more prone to seizures?
