Synthetic marijuana consists of smokeable leaves of plants that have been covered in chemicals that mimic THC, the active ingredient in actual marijuana. Considered to be one of the newest designer drugs, tramadol prescribed for dogs and people, fake pot makers market the substances as “herbal”. However, little credible evidence exists to back up the assertion. Popular among young people, fake pot is typically sold in drug paraphernalia shops and on the Internet.

The American Association of Poison Control Centers claims to have received over fifteen hundred calls nationwide concerning use of fake pot.

In early 2010, tramadol prescribed for dogs and people, CBP took possession of over 100 pounds of two of the five target chemicals.

Although the DEA is just now taking action, over fifteen states have already taken steps to regulate the chemicals present in fake pot. In a perverse twist, tramadol warnings, it turns out that the man who invented three of the five chemicals did so as part of a government-sponsored research project two decades ago; tramadol prescribed for dogs and people; even he admits the substances are dangerous and can result in overdose, addiction or suicide.
