Kratom is almost always taken orally.
In Southeast Asia, typical formulations include raw or powdered leaves or liquid leaf-extracts (tea or decoction). Kratom decoction is often mixed with another beverage to create a kratom โcocktail.โ
In the United States and Western Europe, common formulations include leaf powders taken as a tablet or capsule or dissolved in a beverage. Mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine have been found in resins and liquids sold online for use in electronic drug delivery devices (so-called โe-cigarettesโ).

Kratom have been used increasingly among drug abusers with significant adverse effects. Deaths have been reported in United States, and mitragynines have been detected in post-mortem blood samples.
In recent years, Kratom is available online which aided its spread to United states, Europe, Japan. Kratom purchased online is more effective than the natural plant as it contains higher concentrations of its psychoactive alkaloids.
Long-term use of kratom may produce physical and psychological effects that are very similar to its withdrawal syndrome, that is, anxiety, irritability, mood, eating, and sleep disorders, other than physical symptoms resembling op**te withdrawal.
For this trend, CNDH has launched the "๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ญ๐๐ฉ ๐๐ซ๐๐ญ๐จ๐ฆ ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ค๐ข๐ญ" to provide the preliminary screening of Kratom abuse.
