Kratom used to be not detected on standard drug screens, now there are drug screens for Kratom. I actually learned of this from one of my patients. I had never heard of it until he told me he relapsed and was using it, and low and behold it was in my drug book that I use all the time - but since its a drug that's not used in the USA- I had not paid attention to it.
