About

Salvinorin A is a potent hallucinogen found in the plant Salvia divinorum, native to Mexico. It was first isolated and named in 1982 by Alfredo Ortega and colleagues. Salvinorin A is unique among hallucinogens due to its chemical structure and its action as a selective kappa-opioid receptor agonist.
