Synthetic Cannabinoid (Bonzai) Addiction Treatment

• Bonzai first appeared in 2002 in Germany and Spain, later spreading to Russia and Australia.
• It is a synthetic cannabinoid, mimicking the effects of cannabis.
• As a laboratory-produced, synthetic substance, it carries extremely serious risks.
• Bonzai is usually smoked in cigarettes and is known internationally as “K2” or “Spice.” In Turkey and Northern Cyprus, it is called Bonzai.

Its low cost and odorless nature make it widely used. 

• Even a single use can be fatal
• Can cause a “bad trip”, producing intense fear, hallucinations, and a sensation of dying, potentially triggering sudden heart attacks
• Physical effects: rapid blood pressure and heart rate increase, severe dry mouth, red eyes, and hunger
• Psychological effects: paranoia, hallucinations, delusions

May cause disorientation, inability to recognize surroundings, temporary blindness or paralysis
