Does Kratom have other undesirable side effects? How is it on the liver? If the population present opiate users switched to Kratom, what would we see?

I've heard it causes pretty significant constipation in some cases. I guess that's undesirable.
It does cause some constipation, but it's nothing compared to that caused by even 'weak' opioids like tramadol or dihydrocodeine.
Instant end to opiate overdose deaths, for one.
