Is Dabbing Safer?

• Many people believe that it is safer since due to the high potency, less needs to be taken to produce the 'high'
• This method may increase the risk for dependence and intensify withdrawal symptoms
• It can lead to a higher risk of psychosis as well

Extraction is done using butane (lighter fluid). Due to the nature of the other compounds used during the process, this can become a recipe for explosions. 

FEMA has released warnings about the dangers of extraction.

Using vaping devices to smoke this form of THC is an increasing trend. This makes the drug easily accessible in a variety of public settings.
