Kratom and Loperamide

Loperamide combined with kratom has serious health risks at higher doses (in particular serious heart problems or death). At recommended doses, the half-life of loperamide is approximately 10 hours. However, with higher doses, even as little as 16 mg, longer half-lives have been observed (upwards of 41 hours) !

loperamide is a synthetic drug of the opiate class which inhibits peristalsis and is used to treat diarrhea.

Don't use loperamide to get high, is it cardiotoxic and it might kill you. Now if you're using it for withdrawal symptoms that's fine. Just don't take more than 2 or 3 pills a day.
