Los productos de kratom pueden parecer inofensivos. Algunos se venden como gomitas o bebidas e incluso pueden estar disponibles en gasolineras o tiendas.

Sin embargo, el kratom está relacionado con graves riesgo para la salud, entre ellos la confusión, las convulsiones, el daño hepático y el trastorno por consumo de sustancias.

Habla con tus niños y adolescentes sobre los riesgo de consumir kratom y otras sustancias.

قد تبدو منتجات الكراتوم للوهلة الأولى غير ضارة. فبعضها يُباع على هيئة حلوى هلامية (Gummies) أو مشروبات، بل قد تتوفر حتى في محطات الوقود والمتاجر الصغيرة. إلا أن الكراتوم يرتبط بمخاطر صحية خطيرة، بما في ذلك الارتباك الذهني، والنوبات التشنجية، وتلف الكبد، واضطراب تعاطي المواد. من الضروري أن يتحدث الآباء مع أبنائهم، خصوصًا الأطفال والمراهقين، بشأن مخاطر الكراتوم وغيرها من المواد. هل تحتاج إلى موارد تتعلق بتعاطي المواد للشباب؟ اطّلع على خيارات الدعم المتاحة من إدارة الصحة والخدمات الإنسانية في ميشيغان (MDHHS): https://bit.ly/43A1Pdr
