Pharmacokinetic And Pharmacodynamic Modeling Of Mitragynine In PainTolerance

Mitragyna speciosa, also known as ‘Ketum’or ‘Biak-biak’ in Malaysia and Kratom in Thailand, is a native plant to Southeast Asia. It has a long history of folk medicine use in Southeast Asia and recently has gained popularity in Western countries. Mitragynine (MG) is the principal alkaloid found in t...
