from Sober Spill · host Mountainside

In this episode of Sober Spill, host Jana sits down with Dr. Ashwinii Hari-Kurapati, internal medicine physician, for a clinically rich conversation about the rapidly shifting landscape of addiction medicine.

She also dives deep into Connecticut's historic kratom ban explaining what kratom and its more potent cousin 7-hydroxymitragynine are actually doing to the brain. Dr. Hari also tackles the surprising reality of cannabis withdrawal, the role of Suboxone in kratom recovery, and why medicine is always racing to catch up with the substances hitting the streets.
