Khat Addiction And Rehabilitation | Drug Knowledge | Detox To Rehab

Khat Addiction And Rehabilitation | Drug Knowledge | Detox To Rehab


The khat plant contains two different stimulants called cathinone and cathine. Similar to amphetamine, this drug stimulates the central nervous system with similar effects and risks. Like tobacco, khat is chewed and is most potent in it’s raw form, giving the user a sense of euphoria, a false sense of well-being, and can increase energy. The most common symptom of use is constipation, followed by manic behavior, grandiose delusions, depression, violence, and schizophreniform psychosis.

Withdrawal symptoms can vary, ranging from mild effects such as nightmares and depression, to severe effects like body tremors, hallucinations, vomiting, dangerously low blood pressure, and heart palpitations. Because the health risks involved in detoxing are dangerous, it is suggested to detox under medical supervision.
