it's like something like a mu opioid agonist or whatever, google that shit for nerd accuracy, but iirc it acts more like a stimulant at lower doses and more like an opiate at higher doses, while also varying between strains kinda like weed because there's different ratios of psychoactive alkaloids (iirc the main one being mitragynine or something like that)
so anyway, that's why it's good for weaning off opiates, it helps trigger some of the same receptors so you don't get full ass withdrawal from no opiates
Oh it's definitely a very strong mu agonist. Also, my favorite thing about oxycodone was it, for me, was an upper and then a downer. So l love that kratom has that quality, and even grants you better control over it. I can take 3-4 grams and go to work with a nice mood boost and some extra energy. Or I can take 10 or so for relaxing times.
