Hashish with Delta-8-THC

Risk assessment
In addition to THC and CBD, this sample, declared as THC hashish, contained the cannabinoid Delta-8-THC (∆8-THC). Delta-8-THC was most likely sprayed or incorporated into the hashish at a later stage.
Delta 8-THC (∆8-THC) is a psychoactive cannabinoid that produces a similar intoxicating effect to delta 9-THC (the "classic" THC), but is less potent. It only occurs naturally in very small quantities, if at all, in the cannabis plant. It is highly likely that delta-8-THC is mainly a by-product of the chemical conversion of CBD (cannabidiol) to delta-9-THC. It cannot be ruled out that the by-products formed during the conversion process have a toxic effect. Since synthesis by-products are often not completely separated by the manufacturers and are thus consumed together with delta-9-THC and delta-8-THC on cannabis products, an unknown health risk is assumed during consumption. No studies are available on the short-term and long-term side effects of delta-8-THC. You can find more information about Delta-8-THC here.
Various hashish and cannabis samples containing delta-8-THC are currently in circulation. It is therefore essential to have newly purchased products tested and analyzed before consumption!

Safer Use
Testing
With newly purchased, unfamiliar cannabis products, it is advisable to test only a small amount the first time (take two or three puffs) and then wait about 15 minutes for the effect to develop. If the effect is unusual, do not continue to use the product!
Mixed use
Avoid mixed use. Mixed use with other substances (including alcohol or medications) is very risky because of the unpredictable and still unknown interactions. Avoid mixed use with MAO inhibitors, opioids or tranquilizers.
Mix well
Mix your cannabis products well before consumption (ideally use a grinder) to avoid a high concentration of possible synthetic cannabinoids on individual flower parts. Particular care should be taken with residual material that has fallen off the outer parts of the flower, as this is often likely to contain a particularly high concentration of synthetic cannabinoids.
