Spice/ K2, Synthetic Marijuana
What is Spice/ K2, Synthetic Marijuana?
Just two of the numerous trade names or brands for synthetic designer drugs that aim to replicate THC—the primary euphoric component of marijuana—are Spice and K2 drug spice spray. These creative synthetic pharmaceuticals belong to the family of narcotics known as synthetic cannabinoids, which are frequently sold and promoted as “herbal incense” or “potpourri.”
Because of their psychotropic qualities, these products are abused, and their packaging fails to disclose any health or safety hazards.

How is it abused?
The most popular method of administration, which involves smoking (using a pipe, water pipe, or wrapping the plant material laced with drugs in cigarette papers), can be facilitated by spraying or combining the synthetic cannabinoids with the plant material. Not only are plant-based cannabinoids infused and marketed as incense and potpourri, but liquid cannabinoids can also be inhaled using reusable or disposable e-cigarettes.
What are its effect on the body?
The misuse of herbal incense items containing these synthetic cannabinoids has been linked to negative health impacts, prompting state public health and poison departments to issue warnings. Among these side effects were pallor, numbness, tingling, agitation, hallucinations, unconsciousness, tremors, seizures, tachycardia (fast heartbeat), increased blood pressure, and vomiting. This is on top of the many poison control and public health institutes that have already released advisories on the misuse of these synthetic cannabinoids. In certain cases, the negative health impacts may persist even after the substance user stops using it.
