Experts Warn of Kratom/7-OH Dangers

A growing number of health experts have warned that supplements known as Kratom or 7-OH carry serious health risks that have been hidden from the public.

Kratom and its stronger counterpart 7-OH (7-Hydroxymitragynine) are herbal supplements derived from the Mitragyna plant in Southeast Asia.  

They’ve become popular based on claims of pain relief and mood enhancement, and are available at many online retailers, big box stores and gas stations in several forms including gummies, liquids, chewable tablets and powders.

Research has shown Kratom and 7-OH may be 63 times more deadly than other natural supplements and is already responsible for thousands of deaths in the United States. The FDA has warned about its use and it has been banned in several states.

Due to the Kratom manufacturers failure to warn of its dangers, lawyers are helping those affected file lawsuits.

Nitrous Oxide Health Warnings

Nitrous oxide gas, or laughing gas, is a chemical compound that has been used since the 1800s for medical anesthesia and pain relief. However, it has also gained in popularity as a recreational drug for its intense but short-lived effects.

Deceptive Marketing

Although the use of nitrous is highly restricted by the FDA, several manufacturers in recent years have used a culinary-use exception to market and sell colorful branded nitrous canisters at smoke shops, gas stations and even on Amazon.

When not administered by a health professional, nitrous oxide gas can cause severe bodily injuries, including:

  • Death after product use or caused by a user
  • Paralysis or spinal cord damage
  • Bone spur or nerve damage
  • Traumatic brain injury
  • Permanent numbness or muscle atrophy
  • Cardiac arrest, strokes, arrhythmias
  • Broken bones
  • Severe burns.

Researchers found a 578% increase in deaths related to recreational nitrous oxide use in recent years due to the aggressive marketing of these products. They also warn that death rates may be underreported.

Lawyers are helping those affected by recreational nitrous gas file claims against the manufacturers, alleging they designed and marketed their products to be misused, despite the serious health dangers.

Millions Awarded after Manufacturers Hid Dangers

Experts claim the makers of Kratom & 7-OH products targeted them to teens and young adults, failing to warn about its dangers with proper labeling, dosing instructions and concentration implications.

Makers of Nitrous Oxide gas products allegedly targeted users between 16 and 30 years old for illegal recreational use without disclosing the dangers, by using a loophole meant for cooking products.

As a result, EMS responders have treated nearly 5,000 overdose incidents, many fatal, from Kratom or 7-OH. Meanwhile, deaths from nitrous oxide use have risen by nearly 600%.

So far, courts have awarded millions to victims:

  • $11 Million verdict (July 2023): Awarded to the family of a 39-year-old Florida woman who died from toxicity after consuming a Kratom product called "Space Dust"
  • $2.5 Million verdict (July 2023): Awarded in Washington state to the family of a 39-year-old man who died in 2020 after using a supplement called "Kratom Divine"
  • $745 Million verdict (September 2023): Missouri jury held the manufacturer and smoke shop liable to the family of Marissa Politte after she was struck and killed by a driver who passed out after using Whip-It! Nitrous oxide.

In addition, at least 15 class action lawsuits have been filed against the makers of these Kratom or Nitrous Oxide products.
