Sold as an e-liquid for electronic cigarette, the “Buddha blues” would be composed of a cannabis of synthesis whose effect would be equivalent to a concentration of 95% THC (or tétrahydrocannabidiol), the active principle of cannabis. At this dose, this compound would have an effect of psycho-hallucinatory. In Brest, the investigators have arrested a young importer of 17 years and three resellers.

A product almost legal

The vial e-liquid blue have been entered to be expertised. It is not yet clear which product it is exactly, but it is very probably a derivative of synthetic cannabis, such as the police has already seized in France, with an activity very powerful. The worst is that these products are not necessarily illegal : either they are unknown to the services of toxicology, they are in a fuzzy category at the legal level, which enables fans to obtain almost legally. It is the cannabidiol is legal in France if it is in the form of medicine. However, to this day, as there is still no medicine of the kind in France, the vendors of various e-liquids are sunken into the breach.

And the health authorities are somewhat overwhelmed by the speed of availability of new molecules, as soon as the former are classified as illegal.
