Summary
MGM-15 (dihydro-7-hydroxymitragynine, CAS 1158901-38-2) is a semi-synthetic opioid made by reducing the C=N bond of 7-hydroxymitragynine, the active metabolite of the kratom alkaloid mitragynine. It is not a natural kratom constituent and not a known human metabolite. It was developed by Matsumoto et al. (2014) alongside MGM-16, its 9-fluoro analogue, as ΞΌ/Ξ΄ dual opioid agonists. In animal models the DEA describes MGM-15 as roughly 50 times more potent than morphine. That figure is rodent data and does not translate to a human dose. It has never been studied in humans: no published human dose, no pharmacokinetics, no controlled administration. It reached the US market as tablets sold as a βresearch chemicalβ, and every sample confirmed so far has been a mixture also containing mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine. The DEA placed it into Schedule I in July 2026. MGM-15 is not mitragynine pseudoindoxyl (CAS 2035457-43-1) and not MGM-16. The DEA scheduled all three as separate substances. They have different structures and different potencies, and dosing or pharmacology information for one does not transfer to another.
Dose Information
Dose basis. There is no reliable public data on human doses of MGM-15. We cannot tell you a safe amount, and anyone publishing a milligram range for this compound is guessing β so this page does not carry a dose ladder. What is actually documented: retail products have carried label claims of 3.5 mg, 15 mg and 30 mg per unit (DEA, 2026), and one analytical study measured tablets at an average 10.9 mg each (Gour et al., Drug Testing and Analysis, 2025). Those are vendor amounts in unverified mixtures, spanning nearly a tenfold range β evidence of how inconsistent the market is, not guidance. Because every confirmed sample also contained mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine, user-reported milligrams are milligrams of an unknown blend. A previous version of this page carried a 15β40 mg βcommonβ oral range with no source behind it. It was removed on 2 August 2026 after a reader reported a near-overdose at 20 mg. Treat MGM-15 as a full ΞΌ-opioid agonist: assume respiratory depression, keep naloxone to hand, never dose alone, and never combine with other depressants.
Effect Profile
Scores (1–10) curated from multiple sources:
- Effect keyword matching from PsychonautWiki catalog
- Weighted by importance: core (×3), major (×2), minor (×1)
Strong euphoria with moderate sedation and itching/nausea, mild pain relief
Tolerance
Tolerance Decay
Acute tolerance: develops within a single session β the reset numbers above apply after sustained heavy use, not after one binge. Within-session tachyphylaxis usually resets largely overnight.
Opioid-class tolerance can develop quickly with daily use; users report βlosing effectβ within days. Cross-tolerance with other opioids is expected but extent is uncertain. Very limited empirical data exist for MGM-15; estimates are extrapolated from opioid pharmacology and user reports. Data quality: anecdotal.
