Salvia divinorum
Introduction: Why Choose Salvia divinorum at Psychedelics Lab?
Salvia divinorum, also known as diviner’s sage, is a unique psychoactive plant native to Mexico, traditionally used for spiritual and healing purposes. The primary active compound responsible for its potent effects is salvinorin A, a neoclerodane diterpene distinctly different from classical hallucinogens. Psychedelics Lab offers high-purity salvinorin A and Salvia divinorum extracts exceeding 98%, produced with stringent standards to support advanced research in neuroscience and psychedelic studies across the USA and Europe.
What Is Salvia divinorum?
Salvia divinorum's psychoactive effects derive mainly from salvinorin A, a rare non-nitrogenous diterpene that selectively agonizes kappa-opioid receptors (KOPRs). Unlike typical psychedelics that work via serotonin receptors, salvinorin A acts through opioid pathways, producing powerful hallucinogenic and dissociative effects. It is the most potent naturally occurring hallucinogen by mass, active at doses as low as 200 micrograms. The plant’s fresh or dried leaves, as well as concentrated extracts, contain variable amounts of salvinorin A and related analogs. Salvinorin A's chemical properties include high stability in absence of light and air but instability in basic solutions and solubility in organic solvents.
