| Brief Description of Presentation<\/th>\n\t\t\t\t\t | This workshop provides a comprehensive, evidence-informed exploration of kratom, an increasingly discussed substance with complex clinical and public health implications. Participants will begin by defining kratom and examining its historical and cultural origins, building a foundational understanding of how it has been traditionally used and how its role is evolving today. The session will then delve into the pharmacological effects of kratom on the brain, including how it interacts with opioid receptors and its potential for misuse, dependence, and withdrawal. Drawing on current research, participants will learn to identify evidence-based interventions for addressing kratom use disorder, as well as explore emerging treatment approaches and promising directions in ongoing research. Designed for professionals seeking to stay current in a rapidly changing landscape, this session equips attendees with the knowledge and tools to better understand, assess, and respond to kratom-related concerns in practice.\r\n\r\n<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t |
