Does Kratom (Mitrogyna Speciosa) Work Well for Oxycontin Withdrawals?
Question by Adam M: Does Kratom (mitrogyna speciosa) work well for Oxycontin withdrawals?
Hey guys I am about to enter horrible Oxycontin withdrawals, as I am finally ready to quit. Basically, due to a horrible back injury, I have been using around 480 mgs a day for around 2 years and I am looking for a natural remedy to help ease the pain of withdrawals. I have heard OK things about Kratom for withdrawals, but nothing else really. If you guys know of any other natural remedies that might help, I would appreciate your suggestions, as well as your knowledge or experiences with Kratom. Please no advising the use of “Methadone” or “Suboxone” or any drugs as maintenance therapy. I am not looking to replace one addiction with another, especially not another pharmaceutical dependency. Thanks in advance everyone!
