Opioids Kratom use

[Jankiez]

Any advice here would be great, I usually take around 90mg of oxy per day, recently ran out sooner than expected and bought some Kratom from a local spot. It’s a red vein, not sure how many capsules to take in order to help the WD a bit or mimic the effect of usual meds. Got about 235 capsules total. thanks bl.

Hey dude sorry no one got to you sooner, is this am extract or just standard powder? Cause I would say to start with an equivalent of like 6-8grams and then add like less then 5 grams ever hour or half hour till you get where you want. Its not very dangerous so you can just kinda mess around till you find a dose, but I recommend starting slow just cause it makes some people really nauseous.

Im talking about straight leaf powder equivalent by the way, dont even take a full gram at once if its extract.

Since those only contain usually 0.5g, so you only have like 120 grams. You'd need a really high dose coming off that much Oxy, I'd say at minimum 10g or so. Hopefully that will last you. Can either take the capsules or dump them into a cup, put in some water and chug. That's what I used to do with capsules anyway when I'd run outta kratom and my vendor's order might've been delayed and only the headshop had capsules.

Not sure when you get more Oxy, that's a fucking high dose though damn. Maybe would need like 15-20g of kratom in this case. I'd recommend grabbing some powder from an online vendor or headshop (very hit or miss, I have a reliable headshop).

Just standard powder, I started off with like 8 capsules. Each has .6 grams per. I’ll keep messing with doses until some slight relief happens.

Thanks for your insight, I’ll probably do that, seems much easier than chugging 6-12 capsules at a time.

It's gonna taste mad gross and be rough, but yeah it's kinda easier. I just got used to it over the years, so the taste is whatever. Bitter plant water, that's all really

FWIW, kratom was a.lifesaver for me when I quit oxycodone. I was taking 60mg to 100mg pharmaceutical oxy daily for several years and quit abruptly using only red vein kratom.

I had almost zero withdrawal symptoms. I was probably taking 7g to 8g powdered leaf 6× per day.at first, tapering after a month or so. Since then I've switched to capsules (.6g) and take 4 caps 5 or 6 times daily. Yeah, I'm dependent on kratom but it's a LOT cheaper than oxy and much easier to obtain.
