What is Salvia divinorum?
Mint-family plant Salvia divinorum, sold as dried leaf, extract-enhanced leaf and tinctures; its active constituent salvinorin A is a kappa-opioid agonist. Not a federally controlled substance and not in 21 CFR 1308.11 (a DEA drug of concern only), so state law decides: many states place the plant or salvinorin A on a schedule, some ban it outside the schedules, and some only bar sale to minors.
