Thai Health Ministry Tightens Cannabis Rules in Thailand

Are you sure ? synthetic cannabis is also known as spice and its effects are profound to say the least. I have never heard of it being available in vapes, anywhere certainly not here.

Anyway It would obviously be illegal, firstly its a vape, and secondly it will contain more than 0.2% THC

Well, no it wouldn't, because synthetics are different molecules. They're not THC, they don't even come close in terms of chemical formula I think. They act on the same receptors and have similar effect but they're not in the same chemical class. I think there are many more than just Spice. This is what ChatGPT tells me: "Yes—there are many types of synthetic cannabinoids, and new ones keep appearing. They’re not just variations of one molecule; they span dozens of chemical families designed to mimic the effects of THC (the main psychoactive compound in cannabis), but often much more strongly and unpredictably."

I have been told that vapes (eg Muha Meds Disposables) sold in Thailand are in fact counterfeits containing synthetic cannabinoids from China.

Id need to see proof before I buy into that. Ive never heard of that kind of product being passed off in thailand.

Yes, I’ve seen those vapes and tried them a couple of years ago. I didn’t care for them at all. A couple of reputable weed shops were selling them at the time, and a friend also had one that I tried once when we were in a Bangkok club.

I assume they were all counterfeits from China, as I mentioned in a previous post, but I don’t think anyone really noticed or cared much at the time. To me, the feeling was strange; somewhat like cannabis, but more intense, and something felt synthetic and off. Made me cough badly.

I wouldn’t recommend them. All those mystery chemicals in them can’t be good for the lungs if used regularly.

Could have been crc concentrates. Mediums are used to clear up and brighten the color. But residuals are left behind. Often leaves a very different leftover taste and the high can be quite intense due to higher percentages of thc. Who knows the effect the mediums have when smoked. Ive attached a list of some that are used. Nasty stuff but makes the concentrate look so good.

Could also have been the pg and vg used to mix the concentrate. If it was in fact real thc and not synthetic. I dont know much about synthetic at all.

well if the synthetic cannabinoids start affecting people in the way that spice does we will soon know about it,

The attenborough commentary is obviously a spoof, but what you see is 100% real that is exactly what they are like, When I was working in Manchester during covid the place was awash with them.

Spice and synthetic cannabis is a direct result of prohibition, theres some other stuff that leaves people literally bent double at the waist I think its called Mamba . I find it hilarious watching them on you tube but in real life it must be an absolute nightmare to be anywhere near them check it out

Well as much as I enjoy cannabis I cannot personally vouch for any of its alleged medical properties except " feeling good" lol It certainly is not my drug of choice for pain relief Who on earth smokes anything for health reasons ?

I agree that the majority of cannabis users use cannabis for recreational use (which i have no objection to); however, it does have some medical benefits that if fully legalized and studied could benefit some people. I am allergic to all opioids, so THC and CBD oil is the only thing I can use for pain control, especially after a major surgery. People often forget that all opioids are derived originally from opium.

I can only speak from personal experience, I am no stranger to pain I have had plenty of acute instances like Tooth aches, Wacking my finger with a hammer , black eyes ,cuts bruises , broken bones, major surgery , the list is endless , and i have tried and tried and tried again but neither Edibles, nor Smoking , gave me any pain relief although when combined with the more traditional opiate based pain killers it certainly didn't make things any worse , in fact it made things a whole lot more bearable.

In terms of its proposed medical use and its availability, as presumably a prescription only drug, why has the government imposed a maximum amount that one can be prescribed, ? surely like any other drug the doctor, should decide on the required dosage, I believe the amount is 30g per month which just so happens to be a limit for personal possession in some other countries

It might be enough for a light recreational smoker but nowhere near enough for somebody suffering from chronic pain

The dreaded fentanyl fold.

Nobody should be taking any damn drugs, least of all that damn spice that's destroying B'ham
