Kratom, Thailand’s next strategy to fight drugs

In an effort to fight drugs, the Thai government decided to remove Kratom from its national drugs list, allowing plant, sell, and use for personal propose, in the belief that it would help to take over Amphetamine’s market share in a short time. Kratom leaf consists of Mitragynine, similar to psilocybin and LSD in terms of CNS depressant, growing in Southeast Asia and has been stated as type 5 drugs like cannabis 76 years ago. It acts as a central nervous system depressant as well as medicinal purposes as it relieves pain and makes its users feel energetic and cause a feeling of euphoria in addition to drowsiness. Some people take Kratom to avoid symptoms of opiate withdrawal, especially since Kratom is more easily purchased than prescription drugs.
