Further investigations on phytochemical constituents of dichloromethane extract fromroots of Salvia lachnocalyx (S. lachnocalyx) led to the isolation and identification of eightknown diterpenoids from this plant for the first time. The chemical structures of the purifiedcompounds were elucidated using spectroscopic analyses including EI-MS, 1H and 13C NMR andby compariso...

Salvia divnorum (an intense hallucinogen) is currently illegal in New Zealand under the 2014 Psychoactive Substances Amendment Act. Despite this, there is a scarcity of research surrounding Salvia divinorum and its effects in a New Zealand context. To explore the experiences of Salvia divinorum users, an anonymous questionnaire was advertised through flyers placed in locations where young adult...

BACKGROUND Salvia divinorum is a non-water-soluble hallucinogen that is becoming increasingly popular among adolescents. Salvia is a highly selective full agonist of primate and cloned human cerebral kappa-opioid receptors, although its psychotomimetic effects are similar to serotonergic agonists and NMDA glutamate antagonists. Salvia has been associated with depersonalization, laughter, feelin...
