Dosage Conversion Chart

Please be aware that the below charts reflect estimates and not exact measurements consistent across all kratom vendors. While it is recommended that you buy a scale to correctly measure your kratom, these charts offer support for those who are unable to do so.

When measuring an extract, we strongly recommend purchasing a small digital scale as they often have a significantly higher degree of variability.

    1. Yes you can but not high doses. If you are wanting to take a higher dose of Kratom I would cut the pain pill in half first. I am a former addict of pain meds. And Kratom got me away from them. Now all I use for pain is Kratom for what ever the problem is. Hope this helps.

      1. I’m considering having my grandmother try Kratom, she takes 60mg of oxy per dose and does that about 4times a day, how much Kratom should I start her on?

        1. Yikes thats quite a high dose, I would say try starting at 5-7 and bump it up margionably until it works (10,15,20,30,45,etc)

          I was doing about 20mg oxy for weeks until I did something like 30-40-55-80-120-200-240-360

          At day 5 I think, 10g of kratom was mire than sufficient of getting rid of any remaining withdrawals. Though the first few days I just benzo’d out of. Any questions feel free to ask.

      2. I am trying to get off percs and norcos 10 mg
        I bought white vein and green vein kratom
        I want to ask if I cut my dose down to like 5 x10 mg pills a day currently 10 can I take kratom at same time as I’m cutting ?
        Or is more optimal to wean down on my norcos as much as possible and switch 100 % to kratom
        Anybody
        Please advise

  1. If you have trouble getting powdered Kratom down put in chocolate milk and like a water bottle or some sort of container with a lid and shake. Kratom is resistant to liquids so it’ll take about 10 minutes for it to be able to start mixing evenly in liquids. Wouldn’t recommend coffee as it can irratate bowels and induce a sick to the stomach feeling and also dehydrate. For pain relief and withdrawal use RED VEIN strains. I prefer RED elephant and RED maeng da. Green and white are good for relaxation, positivity, focus etc. I took 4-5 oxycodone 10mg a day for 3+ years. I use 3 teaspoons/ 1 tablespoon of RED VEIN strains every 6-8 hours. Note if you are lactose use soy or almond milks etc.

  2. Wondering if anybody knows. But i know with heroin and other opiates you need to have a window for the drugs to leave your recepors becore you can take suboxone or you will go into precipitated withdraw. Does the same apply for kratom?

    1. PLEASE READ. I am a little disappointed that no one has posted this so far. I just hope everyone new to Kratom understands something, it was not meant to be ingested daily, forever. At higher doses, you WILL experience withdrawal to an extent, if you stop taking it abruptly. It’s no where near as bad as opiod detox, however there is significant discomfort involved. I would recommend tapering yourself down to less than a teaspoon per day before jumping off. You should barely feel the difference, physically. Mental reliance now is a different story. You may be in for a shit show. Please take this seriously. I’ve seen people go through psychological agony trying to get off this shit. Either way, I would definitely admit that Kratom saved my life. Cheers.

    2. No you can actually kick the habit with kratom in fact. Suboxone helps get you off the H but the docs don’t tell you suboxone is also addictive. Suboxone helped get me clean and kratom helped me get off of suboxone. I just wished more people knew how this plant can save lives. Hope this helps

      1. Methadone is what im on and i tried coming off…11 days and i went psycho. Will kratom ween you off methadone. Please email me….trottintrev82.google.com

        1. I haven’t had methadone in almost 3 weeks. Wean down as much as possible. I’ve heard horror stories about coming off methadone and people being sick for even a year. Ridiculous fucking sucks. But kratom absolutely has helped. Would have been lost without the stuff!!

      2. I was stuck taking 16mg of Suboxone for almost 10 years. I hate the shit . I have no energy no drive it ruined my life. Got me off opioid but it sucks. I’m trying Kratom to get off Suboxone tonight first dose here we go .

    3. You can take subs directly after kratom ive done it many times…make sure your at least 3 days off dope or you will get thrown into precipitated withdrawal

      1. Thank you for your reply to Adams question! I have been wondering the same thing and have literally been scouring the internet but getting mixed answers but I haven’t seen anything where someone said they have tried it and you’ll be okay. Thank you!! I tried to stop the subs and ended up relapsing and now taking Kratom. I jumped off subs at 20 mg. Stupid! I’m going back on them. I’m a mess right now even with the Kratom. Maybe I’m not taking enough but I was taking 120 capsules a day of the Whole Herb Red Bali – I thought that was a lot. I shouldn’t complain though, it’s DEF been a huge help. I’m going back on the subs though and going to taper off the right way. I can’t fathom the thought of being like this for however long. My doctor appt. is tmrw so perfect timing that I saw this. Talk about the LOA. Luv it! Thank you Rob 🙂

        1. I was on methadone for 3 years. I highly highly recommend tapering down lower than 20 mg of the sub. The kratom will definitely help when you get to a lower dosage and say f it

        2. Hey. What I did was taper down off of the suboxone all the way to what I believe was approximately. .67mg then I broke that in half for a week its hard to calculate the milligrams when you’re cutting the strips into teeny tiny pieces. Anyhow.. Then I did 3 grams of opms maenga da. I was fine! Now I’m clean and sober! You can do it!

          1. I made Kratom tea and accidentally put 25 grams of Kratom with 2 litres of water. It’s for fentanyl – 1/2 gram a day withdrawals. I realize now that I put way too much Kratom in the tea. Can I dilute this or should I throw it out and start fresh.

    4. No it does not. I didn’t even think about this (probably should have) and took my suboxone like 2 hrs after takings Kratom and I was fine, no withdrawal symptoms.

  3. We all have been lied to and manipulated by big pharma who mfg drugs and doctors who only know how to write prescriptions (doctors are not trained in holistic meds or nutrition)
    Next, drugs work because we aren’t exposed to anything else and we trust our docs and to some extent we trust big pharm because we think “if it was bad our govt. wouldn’t allow it”. It’s o.k. to think this way, very educated people fall prey to the constant barrage of marketing.
    Drugs make us feel better, check.
    Now here’s the money shot. Instead of trying to “get off something” lets try a “lifestyle change”. Start with a whole food plant based diet. Super easy prep extremely healthy, big shot of energy. Your body is craving all sorts of nutrients in addition to drugs yet we often only focus on the drugs. Next, get moving, anyway you can to get some blood circulating it will help to flush your system quicker.
    Join an exercise, or cooking group or anything that gets you away from your regular loser crew.
    If you’re going to use Kratom or weed, or something else, watch that your not just replacing one substance for another s d keep a journal so you know what works and what didn’t.
    Don’t give up. You don’t need to be a slave. You are strong and collectively we send out our energy to help you. Fuck big pharma, let’s hit em where it hurts.

  4. I used to take kratom in highschool, itd help me stay positive and have alot of energy. After I graduated I developed servere social anxiety and I’m just wondering is kratom would help me be more upbeat and positive? I can barely finish a shift at work without having panic attacks because of how busy my job gets and I really need this job ha

    1. Some people think it works for anxiety, I’ve also heard others use CBD oils without the THC however, if you’re job is one that drug tests I don’t suggest it. This can help in low doses. But finding the root of the anxiety is the true way to help break the cycle. Addressing the issue it even just knowing. Can help lower the severity and possibly stopping most of them all together! Support groups are another good tool. Them more tools in your pocket the better chance of beating the attacks before they become unmanageable. Good luck!

    2. Yes. My situation is very similar to yours and it has saved my life on so many occasions. Just take it. Stay tf away from pills. And rekindle your inner trust for yourself.

  5. After 22 days of Suboxone withdrawal a friend of mine recommended trying Kratom. He told me a quarter teaspoon in my coffee a few times a day will do the trick. This was in May. I am now currently taking about 5 heaping teaspoons throughout the day. Not because I want it but because my body needs it. I am completely physically dependent on kratom. It sucks because I am starting to get the feeling of being depressed not to mention physically dependent and bummed out at myself For another drug to get off of. I was so proud of myself for getting off of the Suboxone and now I have to do this all over again. I am very grateful that I was able to get off of pharmaceuticals and start getting some sleep but now I can’t go 4 hours without the feeling of withdrawal. Therefore I am getting up throughout the night. Any suggestions on tapering off of this stuff?? The dosage that I am currently taking does not give me energy nor does it make me feel better…. it just takes away the withdrawal!

    1. Hey hey! I totally hear you. Alcohol and weed and really anything I could get my hands on was my frug of choice and about 6 months sober from all of it I tried Kratom. Went from 5g at night to 10g 4 times a day. I’m tapering now. Just do it slowly. Start decreasing your dose by .5 each day. So say your taking 5g a couple times a day now cut down to 4.5 for each dose that day, then continue until your done. There’s a ton of supplements that are helpful with the withdrawal symptoms, but if your tapering slowly you shouldn’t get many withdrawals. I’m taking magnesium for the restless legs and melatonin at night for sleep. If you hop on reddit and search for Kratom withdrawal you’ll see a lot of others. Good luck buddy!

    2. Tapering even by just a little helped me! I drink mine in a juice and started adding more juice and lowering my measurements every 3rd-4th day I would do it again. I make my daily amount and would take a drink through out the day. After a few weeks I was down to a 10 g from 70! And just stopped taking all together. Good luck!

    3. I have taken, quit, taken, quit kratom for yeeears. Sounds to me like youre getting stagnant strain syndrome. Just switch it up and take less..also, do some research. Not to be mean but you sound very naive to psycoactives, the fact you were ever put on suboxone is a freaking horror story at best. not to sound like that punk uncle, but grow up. Even suboxone is easier to quit than heroine or speed, and i did both for a long time, now i am completely clean and use kratom to curve the urges that i will continue to have for the rest of my life, and im fine with that.

      1. Just because you had an easy time coming off of Suboxone, doesn’t mean that everyone else does. In fact, In my life I have never heard anyone say easier than heroin but exactly the opposite. I think it’s wicked rude of you and you do sound like that punk uncle, exactly that a PUNK telling someone to grow up for having a hard time quitting an addiction. Everyone is different. Like I said just because it was easy for you doesn’t mean it will be easy for everyone else. Why are there so many drug addicts? Hugely because it’s is NOT easy to stop. No one wants to be a drug addict. If it were easy, it wouldn’t be such a huge problem. Get off your high horse! I commend and respect anyone trying to stop living in the hell of addiction. Cuz that’s what it is – he’ll get people keep doing it. Think before you write ignorant comments like that.

      2. Ummm no if you have taken suboxone is not easier bro, it’s still a better choice. But if I knnew abiut this life saving plant would have never jumped on subs

  6. I just started with kratom, white/green blend. I have been taking 4 hydos per day for over 20 years due to severe scoliosis. I started taking 1 capsule every 12 hours. I cut the gyros in 1/2 but noticed pain was still there. I have developed insomnia and have slept very little. I mentioned it to my provider and recommended I try 1 capsule of maeng-da starting slow with 2 capsules per day. I understand I have to find the right dosage for me but in the meantime I really need my sleep. And suggestions?

    1. One or two 00 size capsules will do absolutely nothing. Take 10-15 00 size capsules start with 5 wait 30 minutes and take 2 every 15 minutes until you feel better.

  7. Hey guys, I’ve been in the methodone clinic four 7 years and as of Friday I took my last dose. I’m in acute withdrawals. I have been wanting to try some kartom. I bought red Malaysia. I just taken my first dose. I sure hope this works.

    1. It will work use powder…2 tablespoons…put in hot cup of coffee…then add ice..to cool off choke it down…it tastes like crap….3-4 times a day.. It will help stomach issues…it will stop diarrhea…and calm your restlessness….nothing like a real dose of methodone/oxy…..but you will feel 10 times better….it gets better my friend….stick with it….nothing like freedom again…from pharma👍

    2. Hey Hopeful. How are you doing?! Hope you are doing well. Ive never been an addict but I’m sure it can’t be easy. hang in there!

  8. Could someone please tell me how much
    Kratom is in a capsule? I’m new to this since being forced to go cold turkey from opioids
    (SOB’s Big Pharma, FDA, etc)
    It’s been 18 months since my last Narco. The withdrawals weren’t too bad because I went to
    A Doctor that helps b people detox, by giving them Suboxne for 3 months & you have to taper
    Off yourself before the 3 months is done over.
    There’s nothing that replaces Narco pain meds
    Even thou I’m not expecting a miracle- this is SO much better than the old one.
    So I need to know how much K is in a capsule
    In order to figure out my doesage

    1. Each capsule contains 1/2 gram..

      I wish you luck because I’m in the same situation. I’m fed up with PAs in my pain Drs office having a snotty attitude toward me.. I have been a patient for 13 years and they still do this. I’m really over it.

      I have been opioid free for 6 days thanks to Kratom. No withdrawal effects. I as on morphine 30 mg 3x per day and Percocet 10mg 2x per day. I had to reduce my morphine by cutting them in half for several days before doing kratom so the withdrawals wouldn’t be so bad when I jumped off to kratom. It worked like a charm. I did really good and so far, I barely feel 95% of any withdrawal.. once again I wish yo luck.

    2. I’m in the same boat! Going to pic up my order. 250grams of the red white and green(9 ounces for 75$). Been tapering off my subs the past 6 months from 4mg to 3 2 and 1 in about two week time periods after the last day i didn’t have kratom but a substitute called quadrangular leaf (look it up)bc kratom is not sold in the state where i live. Took 5 at a time 3 times a day and now withdrawal what so ever and swapping over to kratom today! Very surprised how this stuff works!!!!!!!
