Mitragynine is an indole alkaloid from the plant M. speciosa. It has stimulatory, antinociceptive, and opiate-like effects, acting through noradrenergic, serotonergic, and opioid receptors. Mitragynine has a higher affinity for the μ-opioid receptor than the δ- or κ-opioid receptors (pKi = 8.14, 7.22, and 5.96, respectively). Mitragynine and its derivatives have been identified in products sold as incense. The identification and quantification of mitragynine and related alkaloids, as well as their phase I and II metabolites, have been described. This product is intended for forensic applications.
