Kratom use is linked to rising deaths in Indiana, with toxicology showing dangerous compounds causing overdose risks despite being marketed as natural.
The Indiana Coroner’s Office reports a growing number of deaths linked to kratom, a natural supplement used for pain and anxiety despite being deemed unsafe by the FDA.
Though federally legal, kratom is banned in Indiana and restricted in nearby states.
Toxicology reports show rising levels of mitragynine and potent forms like 7-OH in deceased individuals, which can cause opioid-like effects, dependence, and overdose.
Available in stores and online as gummies, powders, and drinks, kratom lacks pre-market safety approval, and no central authority ensures quality.
The coroner warns that “natural” does not mean safe and urges caution, especially due to risks of interactions and unregulated ingredients.
El uso de Kratom está relacionado con el aumento de las muertes en Indiana, con toxicología que muestra compuestos peligrosos que causan riesgos de sobredosis a pesar de ser comercializados como naturales.
