Public Perceptions toward Kratom ( Mitragyna Speciosa ) Use in Malaysia
Datos Bibliográficos
Kratom ( Mitragyna speciosa ), an indigenous medicinal plant of Southeast Asia, is believed to be harmful. We compared the perceptions toward kratom use among kratom users and non-users in Malaysia. 356 respondents (137 kratom users and 219 non-users) were recruited for this cross-sectional study. The majority of respondents were male (60%, n = 212/356), Malays (88%), and 51% were ≥37 years old. Non-users showed higher unadjusted odds of reporting a perception that kratom use can cause addiction (OR = 6.72, CI: 3.91-11.54, p p p p p p p < .0001). Because of the disconnect in kratom use perceptions and personal experiences between kratom users and non-users, hastily criminalizing kratom without investigating carefully its scientific merits can significantly impede future kratom research
