Products & Potency
What are 7-hydroxymitragynine tablets?
7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) is the most potent naturally occurring alkaloid in the kratom plant. Rapture 7-OH tablets concentrate that alkaloid into a precision-dosed, chewable tablet — from a gentle 10mg starter up to the 121mg Ultra Elite. Unlike kratom powder, tablets give you an exact, consistent serving every time.
What's the difference between 7-OH tablets and regular kratom powder?
Classic kratom leaf powder contains a broad spectrum of alkaloids with mitragynine as the main compound. 7-OH tablets isolate and concentrate 7-hydroxymitragynine, which is significantly stronger per milligram. That’s why our tablets start at 10mg while kratom powder servings are measured in grams. See the full alkaloid comparison →
How strong is the Rapture Platinum 40mg tablet?
Platinum 40mg is our most popular strength — a medium serving that most users find noticeable but manageable. For context, it’s roughly 4x the 10mg starter tablet. Many buyers describe it as the “everyday” sweet spot for the Platinum line.
Which Rapture product is the strongest?
The Ultra Elite 121mg is the strongest tablet we make, followed closely by the Hybrid 111mg Crown Reserve. These are intended for experienced users only. If you’re new, start with the 10mg tablet.
What's the mildest product for a first-time user?
The Rapture 55mg Watermelon Kratom Seltzer is specifically designed for first-time users. Its scored surface lets you start with a half tablet (5mg) and adjust slowly. Pair it with our beginner dosing guide.
Do the flavored tablets really taste like the flavor?
Yes — flavors like Cherry Watermelon, Strawberry Mango, and Blue Razz Cotton Candy are formulated with real fruit-forward flavoring, so the tablets are genuinely pleasant to chew. The original and Black line tablets are unflavored and neutral-tasting.
How many tablets are in a bottle?
Every Rapture tablet bottle contains 10 tablets. Shots are sold as single 30ml (1 fl oz) bottles. Want to stock up? Check the full shop for bundle options.
What is the Crown Reserve edition?
Hybrid 111mg Crown Reserve is our limited-production hybrid alkaloid blend, released in small batches with a midnight-purple label and gold crown emblem. When a batch sells out, we brew a new one — each with published lab results.
Are your products lab tested? Where can I see the results?
Yes. Every batch is tested by an independent ISO-certified lab for alkaloid potency, heavy metals, and microbial purity. Certificate-of-Analysis results are published per batch — see the lab results guide and the quality section below.
Do you sell kratom powder or capsules?
Rapture focuses on the modern format: precision-dosed 7-OH tablets and fast-acting kratom shots. We chose tablets and shots because they remove the guesswork of measuring powder. Learn more in our tablets vs shots guide.
Dosing & Usage
What dose of 7-OH should I start with?
Start low and go slow. New users should begin with a single 10mg tablet — or half of one. Wait at least 60–90 minutes before considering more. Everyone’s body chemistry is different, so let your own response guide you. Read the full dosing guide →
How long does a 7-OH tablet take to kick in?
Most users report onset in 30–60 minutes for chewable tablets. Liquid shots typically act faster — often within 15–30 minutes — because liquids absorb more quickly. Your individual metabolism, stomach contents, and tolerance all affect timing. More on onset times →
How long do the effects of 7-OH last?
For tablets, effects typically last 3–6 hours depending on dose and individual tolerance. Shots tend to be shorter but sharper. Plan your day accordingly, and never redose impulsively — wait at least 4–6 hours between servings.
Can I split a tablet for a smaller dose?
Absolutely. All Rapture tablets are scored so you can snap them in half for a precise micro-serving — this is the smartest way to start with the 10mg tablet (split = 5mg) or dial in your ideal dose on the Platinum 40mg.
What is the maximum recommended daily serving?
We recommend a maximum of two servings per day for experienced users and no more than one serving for your first week. Kratom and 7-OH products can be habit-forming — responsible use means fixed serving windows, scheduled days off, and honest self-monitoring. See our responsible use guide.
Can I take 7-OH on an empty stomach?
You can, and many users report faster onset on an empty stomach. That said, some people feel nausea if they take kratom products with nothing in their stomach — a light snack 30 minutes before can help. Start with your usual serving and adjust based on how you feel.
How do I build tolerance management into my routine?
The golden rules: never increase your dose to chase an effect, take at least one full day off per week, and rotate between strengths like Platinum 40mg and Diamond 51mg rather than stacking. Our tolerance reset guide covers the full protocol.
How do kratom shots compare to tablets?
Shots hit faster and wear off faster; tablets are steadier and longer-lasting. Shots win on portability — the 20mg Blue Razz shot fits in a pocket. Tablets win on precision and value. Many customers keep both. Full comparison →
Can I combine 7-OH tablets with other supplements?
We strongly advise against combining 7-OH with alcohol, opioids, sedatives, or other central-nervous-system depressants. For other supplements or medications, ask a healthcare professional first — never mix and guess.
What should I do if I took too much?
Stay calm, hydrate, sit in a comfortable position, and avoid driving or operating machinery. Nausea and dizziness usually pass. If you experience severe symptoms, contact a healthcare professional or poison control immediately. Our responsible use guide has more detail.
Legality & Safety
Is kratom legal in the United States?
Kratom is legal at the federal level in the US, but several states — including Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Rhode Island, Vermont, Wisconsin, and others — plus local municipalities have banned or restricted it. Always verify your local laws. See the full state-by-state legality guide →
Will Rapture ship to my state?
We ship everywhere kratom is legal, but we do not ship to states or municipalities where kratom products are prohibited. If your order can’t be fulfilled due to location, it is automatically cancelled and refunded in full. Check the legality FAQ — or just ask us before ordering.
Who can buy Rapture products?
You must be 21 years of age or older to purchase from rapturekratom.com. By placing an order you confirm your age and that kratom is legal where you live. We take age verification seriously — please have ID ready if asked.
Is 7-hydroxymitragynine the same as kratom in the eyes of the law?
In most jurisdictions, 7-OH products are regulated the same as other kratom products. However, a growing number of states are writing specific rules for 7-hydroxymitragynine, so laws can change quickly. Bookmark our legality guide to stay current.
Is it safe to drive after taking 7-OH?
We advise against driving or operating heavy machinery after taking any kratom or 7-OH product, especially until you know how it affects you personally. When in doubt, don’t drive — it’s not worth the risk to you or anyone else.
Can I use 7-OH while taking prescription medication?
Only with the explicit approval of your prescribing doctor. 7-OH interacts with opioid receptors and may interact with pain medication, antidepressants, blood pressure medication, and sedatives. Never mix unknown combinations — talk to your healthcare provider first.
Is kratom addictive?
Like any substance that acts on opioid receptors, kratom and 7-OH carry a risk of dependence with heavy, frequent use. That’s why we publish honest responsible-use guidance: fixed servings, days off, and no dose escalation. If you have a history of substance dependence, we encourage you to speak with a professional before use.
Can pregnant or nursing women use kratom products?
No. Do not use kratom or 7-hydroxymitragynine if you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or nursing. Kratom use during pregnancy is not recommended and may cause withdrawal symptoms in newborns.
Is Rapture Kratom FDA approved?
No dietary supplement is FDA-approved for use as a drug, and kratom has not been recognized as safe by the FDA. Rapture products are sold as botanical supplements for adult use only. This is exactly why we insist on independent lab verification and publish every result.
What are the common side effects of 7-OH?
The most commonly reported effects include nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, constipation, and headache — usually dose-related. Staying hydrated, eating light meals, and starting with low doses dramatically reduces these. If side effects persist, discontinue use and consult a doctor.
Quality & Lab Testing
How do I know your lab results are real?
Each Certificate of Analysis is issued by an independent, ISO 17025-accredited third-party lab with its own sample tracking number — not a company-affiliated lab. You can verify the lab’s identity and cross-check the batch number printed on your bottle. Learn to read a COA →
What does a 7-OH lab test check for?
Three things: potency (actual alkaloid content, including 7-hydroxymitragynine and mitragynine), purity (heavy metals like lead and arsenic, microbials like E. coli and salmonella), and solvents (residual extraction solvents). A passing COA should show all three at safe levels — explained in our COA guide.
Where are Rapture products manufactured?
In GMP-certified facilities in the United States that follow the same quality standards used by leading dietary supplement brands. Ingredients are sourced from trusted growers, then extracted, pressed, and tested under strict internal controls.
Why do you use amber glass bottles?
Amber glass blocks UV light, which degrades alkaloids over time. Combined with child-resistant caps and fresh-sealing, your tablets stay at full potency from our shelf to yours — part of the quality promise on our About page.
What is GMP certification and why does it matter?
Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) certification means a facility is audited for clean processes, accurate labeling, and traceability from raw material to finished product. It’s the difference between “a guy with a blender” and a real supplement manufacturer. Read the GMP explainer →
How do you extract 7-hydroxymitragynine?
We use a clean, solvent-removed extraction process that isolates the 7-OH alkaloid fraction from kratom leaf, then purifies and dries it into a standardized powder that’s pressed into tablets. Residual solvents are tested down to parts-per-million on every batch.
What is 'full spectrum' in kratom products?
Full-spectrum products keep a broader range of the plant’s alkaloids — mitragynine, 7-OH, speciogynine, and others — while isolates focus on one. Our Hybrid Crown Reserve is our full-spectrum-leaning formulation. Comparison guide →
Do your products contain additives or fillers?
Only what’s needed to press a clean tablet: we use minimal, food-grade binders and flavoring agents — no illicit additives, no synthetic fillers, and no artificial anything in the Original line. Ingredient lists on every product page are complete and accurate.
How should I store my Rapture products?
Keep bottles sealed, upright, and in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Your refrigerator is too humid; a dark cupboard is perfect. Stored properly, Rapture tablets maintain label potency for 24 months from manufacture. Storage guide →
Can I return a product if I'm not satisfied?
Yes — see our Refund & Returns Policy. Unopened products can be returned within 30 days, and we’ll always replace damaged or defective items at no cost. Your satisfaction is part of the guarantee.
