Lab-made substances sprayed on plant material or paper. They imitate cannabis but act much more strongly, and what they contain changes from batch to batch: nobody really knows what they’re taking.
- Is it addictive?
- Yes. Regular users can feel withdrawal when they stop: headaches, anxiety, low mood and irritability.
- Dangerous mixes
