What is 8-OH-HHC?
8-hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol, also known as 8-OH-HHC (8-OH-9α-HHC and 8-OH-9β-HHC), is a minor phytocannabinoid and the main metabolite of hexahydrocannabinol (HHC).
This unique cannabinoid is becoming increasingly popular in the retail sector and its inclusion in your wholesale offering will therefore allow you to reach a wide range of customers. Products with 8-OH-HHC are created by chemical synthesis from HHC, ensuring consistent quality for your customers.

Effects of 8-OH-HHC
8-OH-HHC has psychoactive effects that are slightly milder than those of HHC or THC, making it attractive to consumers looking for a mellower experience. Users may experience altered perception, euphoria, a feeling of relaxation or increased appetite.
Like other cannabinoids, 8-OH-HHC is likely to interact with CB1 and CB2 receptors in the endocannabinoid system, which affects mood, appetite, sleep and pain perception.
When wholesaling synthetic cannabinoids such as 8-OH-HHC, it is crucial to inform your customers of the correct dosage and possible side effects. These include, in the case of 8-OH-HHC, dry mouth, reddened dry eyes, anxiety, dizziness or increased heart rate.
The strength of these effects can vary depending on the dose, as 8-OH-HHC can be more intense than natural cannabinoids as a (semi)synthetic compound. No detailed studies are yet available to confirm that the use of 8-OH-HHC is without health risks.
It is also advisable to inform customers that it is not recommended to drive or operate any machinery after taking 8-OH-HHC and other similar substances.
In view of the unclear legal status of the new cannabinoids, it is worth keeping an eye on legislative developments and always respecting the current regulations of the country concerned.
