Recent research conducted experts and published in the DailyMail, found alarming data on the prevalence of the synthetic drug spice in vape liquid.
This information was reported by the Ukrainian Telegram news service, reports URA-Inform.
According to their findings, one in six vapes on the market contains this dangerous drug, which can cause serious and potentially fatal medical consequences, such as heart attacks and strokes.
Toxicology and addiction specialists conducted a series of tests on the liquid for vapes, which revealed a disturbing picture: many of the samples tested contained spice, an illegal synthetic drug known to cause acute psycho-emotional reactions and severe physical disorders.
The drug, which is often added to vape liquids to enhance their effect, is a dangerous substance with high health risks.
Spice, a synthetic analogue of cannabis, has highly active chemical components, which can seriously disrupt the functioning of the cardiovascular and nervous systems. Inhaling vapors containing this drug can cause sharp jumps in blood pressure, lead to rapid heart rate, and also cause strokes, which makes the use of such vapes extremely dangerous.
Recall that scientists are sounding the alarm about the activation of a little-known virus with a fatal outcome: what is known about it.
