🛑 7-OH is not a safe alternative…
Patient statements, “I became dependent on 7-OH … They sell it everywhere … I’m spending $150 a day … My body starts shaking as soon as it starts to wear off … After doing some research, I found out that it is a synthetic opioid … I tried quitting on my own, but nothing has worked … I need professional help.”
The patient developed acute, overlapping opioid-like (insomnia, myalgia, anxiety, diaphoresis, and gastrointestinal upset) and nicotinic (intense craving, irritability, restlessness, and difficulty concentrating) withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms rapidly escalated to severe agitation, psychosis, and respiratory compromise requiring intubation and intensive care.
Kratom and 7-OH are not the same thing. Please be safe when you purchase these products sold at gas stations and smoke shops. If you have questions call the office at 806-568-1304. ☎️
