Kratom Questions

I have recently become very interested in the Kratom alkaloids being that my drugs of choice are opiates, primarily natural ones, like poppy straw (pods). Kratom looks very promising as an alternative. So I have two questions.

1. I found some pure kratom alkaloid crystals and am wondering if it would be possible to vaporize them like opium. Also what kind of dose would someone use with a medium opiate tolorance.

2. Is mitragynine and 7-ho-mitragynine metabolized by the same enzymes as morphine, ect? I have to take cimetadine with morphine get a good buzz, would this be the case with kratom?

thank you.
 
I don't know about the metabolism, this doesn't really belong in ADD imo, but do not, whatever you do smoke it, and don't snort it either, let me guess, it is dark blacky gray, semicrystalline with a green powder produced on pulverising some?

dissolve it in hot water and drink, I tried this a few times and the stuff rates as pretty good, although some of the good high alkaloid leaves are better.
 
Kratom gave me what I can only call as "sick nods". By sick I mean it felt like I was in withdrawal and yet I was nodding. Rather dysphoric too. I really, really did not like Kratom, and it doesn't come close to even being worthy of mention in the same sentence as poppies or Morphine!

And to my knowledge, no, their metabolism in entirely different. I could be wrong, though.
 
Don't know about vaporization, seems like a pretty big molecule...

Theres no info on the metabolism, so I don't know.

2 out of 3 of my Kratom experiences weren't very good either. I spent the entire time lying down because sitting up, standing up or even moving made me nauseous. Definently not pleasant.
 
Trust me when I say don't try vaporising it, I tried it, with the exact same product, it is harsh as shit, and produced no effects in me.

Stirring it into hot water is the way to go, it tastes quite pleasant, well, it did to me.
