When I take kratom I dose 2x a day. Drop by .25 or .50 grams for each dose. When each dose is 2 grams, I switch to dosing 3 grams 1x a day. Right before bed. Then I just taper that down at the same rate.

When I get to 0.5 grams per day, I just stop. I may sleep a little less and feel a little irritable for a few days but then it's back to normal. Working out every day and abstaining from sugary foods eliminates any remaining withdrawal symptoms in my experience.
