Liquid Kratom extract from head shops?

[Deathvalley69]

Yesterday I went to my local headshop, and by my friend's recommendation I purchased a bottle of liquid Kratom extract called "Krazy Kratom." This was going to be my first Kratom experience. I took one dropper full of the stuff and squirted it underneath my tongue and swished it around for a few minutes and then swallowed . I felt the effects very quickly, after about 5 minutes. It took about 45 minutes to peak. It felt very much like a mild oxycodone high. I was very pleased with how I felt. Has anyone had experience with these headshop Kratom extracts? I'm assuming the quality isn't as good as the ones you would purchase online but I still felt great. How much liquid extract is a good normal dose? The bottle is extremely sketchy looking and literally has nothing on it except for "not for sale to minors."

I've had success with headshop extracts and also have received bunk extracts. I use to take 3-6 drops with some decent extract but it varys with different vendors and shops. In my honest and personal experience I feel its hit or miss depending on the shop so I always say stay away from headshops as some seem too sit on the product if it doesn't sell. Over time the alkoloids drop. Must be stored properly as well. Doesn't hurt to try headshop products I just prefer a vendor who is educated in mitragyna speciosa.

Some extracts are even mixed with different plants and herbs so not having a label with ingredients suck. Smart vendors label their products "not for human consumption"

Yeah I really wish they listed the ingredients. I hope what I'm taking is indeed Kratom and not something else lol

I did a search on it and its trademarked and indeed Kratom. It has some bad reviews too from 2013 as well.

Oh cool thanks. It seemed really great to me but then again that was my first time doing Kratom. However I have a decent amount of experience with oxycodone and this was comparable

You will find with extracts that some won't be as consistent as the last extraction from the same brand as the powder they use for the extraction may be from different sources with different alkoloid levels. Just don't prolong the use of extracts as I'm sure you know. Those withdrawals are very similiar to high dose pharmacy opiate withdrawal.
