Synthetic Marijuana is marketed as “herbal incense” under hundreds of brand names such as Spice, K2, The Dreaded, and Cloud 9. It consists of plant matter sprayed with toxic chemicals that, when inhaled, produces a high often accompanied by a variety of dangerous health effects. Although it is labeled “not for human consumption” it is misleadingly touted as a safe and legal alternative to marijuana and can be legally purchased anywhere in NH.
Health effects from synthetic marijuana can be life-threatening and can include: Severe agitation and anxiety; Fast, racing heartbeat and higher blood pressure; Nausea and vomiting; Muscle spasms, seizures, and tremors; Intense hallucinations and psychotic episodes; Suicidal and other harmful thoughts and/or actions.
If you would like to see all forms of this dangerous substance removed from store shelves across New Hampshire, please show your commitment and support by signing this petition today.
