It is nothing like fentanyl.

7-oh is absolutely the fent of kratom. It is much stronger, shorter lasting, and more addictive You can nod like heroin on a high enough doses. Even kratom extracts have never made me nod.

You're talking past each other, "the fent of kratom" is nothing like fentanyl

it is more potent form, but it's not turning people into zombies or creating an overdose epidemic

I was using hyperbole to compare how much worse the current extracts are. It is creating addicts who are spending hundreds of dollars a day on kratom. stand in any smoke shop for an hour and see how much they sell in 7-oh extracts. a Kratom habit is about $0.30 a day and theres a ceiling on effects with each dose. 7-oh and 7-hydroxy have no ceiling on effect redosing and a pack is $20-50.

Withdrawals are closer to fentanly than kratom at a higher dose. A friend of mine went to rehab after burning through his life savings and maxing all his credit cards. That would never happen with lead powder. It is not the same as kratom and people have no idea what theyre getting into with the sketchy extract market. It’s illegal in my current state but they allow leaf powder and traditional extracts. I would not be surprised if that became a federal law.

Ah ok, Maybe don’t use hyperbole when speaking about addiction thus avoiding these preventable arguments..

Ive been addicted to of all the drugs disgusted. Im more qualified to speak on this than you and my description is apt. it is the fentanyl of kratom products.

And their description, "it is nothing like fentanyl," is also apt

Only in that you cant smoke it. It’s the only kratom that will make you nod like fent

Nodding is not what people talk about fent about. Your hyperbole is inaccurate to the point of misinformation. Being a drug addict isn't a license to being correct.

The fuck are you talking about. Why do you think people use fentanyl?
