Addiction Policy Forum Webinar – 7-Hydroxymitragynine (7-OH): Science, Risks, and Real-World Impact
December 16 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Free7-Hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) is a psychoactive component of kratom — and it’s showing up in increasingly in new concentrate and synthetic forms in products found in gas stations and convenience stores. These newer formulations have increased concerns among researchers, clinicians, and advocates about misuse, unpredictable potency, and emerging health risks. Even though kratom is widely available, there’s still limited public understanding of how synthetic and concentrated 7-OH products actually work in the body and how they can impact individuals and communities.
This webinar will unpack what we currently know about 7-OH in a clear, accessible way. We will discuss the latest research on its pharmacology, effects, and risks. A moderated discussion will give participants the chance to ask questions and better understand what this emerging issue means for families, communities, and the broader field.
