What is K2 Spice / Synthetic Marijuana?
K2 is the first generation of synthetic cannabis to appear on the market.
K2 spice is a synthetic version of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the mind-altering ingredient in marijuana.
Marijuana vs Spice
Synthetic cannabinoids mimic the effects of THC naturally found in marijuana. However, all the ingredients used for creating spice are synthetic or human-made.
Marijuana comes from the cannabis plant. K2, on the other hand, is the combination of several chemicals, namely CP 47,497, HU-210, and JWH-018.
What makes spice harmful?
They both bind to the same cannabinoid receptors in the brain. When used for medicinal purposes, marijuana can heal. Synthetic cannabinoids don’t. It is a harmful chemical that, when used, can lead to life-threatening consequences.
Some may consider synthetic marijuana to be a safer alternative than cannabis. However, evidence proves otherwise. To learn other side-efects of Spice click here.
How to Use a Drug Test Strip?
- Remove the drug test from its sealed pouch and use it as soon as possible. For best results, perform the assay within an hour.
- Next, hold the strip by the end, where you can see the product name. To avoid contamination, do not touch the strip membrane.
- Then, holding the strip vertically, dip the test strip in the urine specimen for at least 10-15 seconds. Do not immerse above the maximum line (MAX) on the test strip. That’s about 1/5th of the way up the strip.
- After the drug test has finished, remove the strip from the specimen and place it on a non-absorbent flat surface. Start the timer and wait for the colored band(s) to appear. Read the result at 5 minutes. Do not interpret it after 10 minutes.
