Fentanyl and fentanyl analogs were the most frequently identified co-occurring substances; any fentanyl was listed as a cause of death for 65.1% of kratom-positive decedents and 56.0% of kratom-involved decedents. Heroin was the second most frequent substance listed as a cause of death (32.9% of kratom-positive decedents), followed by benzodiazepines (22.4%), prescription opioids (19.7%),** and cocaine (18.4%).

It’s very very likely the cause of death was those drugs in their system not kratom

**in only seven of these cases, however, kratom was found to be the only substance found in the deceased’s system.**

As wages stagnate or lessen and general quality of life continues on the decline the profits for big pharma will go up

Needed a way to cope
