AUDIENCE: Consumer, Patient, Health Care Professional, Pharmacy, Gastroenterology, Neurology, Pulmonology, Cardiology
ISSUE: Better Weather Actives is recalling ALL lots of Better Weather Fix Elixir 15 ml because the products may contain undeclared Mitragynine and Mitragynine Pseudoindoxyl (MP). MP is a more potent derivative of Mitragynine, or Kratom. Consumption of MP can produce undesirable effects such as nausea, vomiting, rapid heart rate (tachycardia), palpitations, hallucinations, sedation, anxiety, and loss of consciousness. It can also fatally suppress the respiratory system. Consumption of Mitragynine, especially MP, may cause addiction with severe opioid withdrawal symptoms. Consumption of products that contain Mitragynine or MP, especially in the context of concomitant use of other drugs (prescribed or illicit), could result in other severe or fatal physiological effects.
