I'm referring to kratom "tea", the strong dark orange brew they sell in plastic bottles. After I drink the whole lot I stop passing water until well into the next day, in spite of the added liquid I take into my system. Then during the next day I urinate frequently throughout the day but only bit by bit. What's happening here? It is somewhat reminiscent of rhabdomyolysis, when the kidneys stall owing to too many proteins in the bloodstream.  I googled kratom in relation to kidney issues but I could only find kidney issues related to chronic daily usage. Could this be related to kratom's constipating impact, I mean water being retained in the gut rather than absorbed and eliminated?

Probably sensible to not drink so much unless you wish to get other physiological problems.  They control the levels of ions, osmoregulation, in the body, if you stop them doing this by getting rid excess ions or water, there may be possible serious problems including kidney failure.

Dehydration is why you pee less. 

 

 

 

 

Use of Kratom can lead to hyponatremia, and if the kratom have added yaba, or are a strong potent hybrid, same effect.
