- However, as the man said; none of these drugs are opiates. The active
ingredients in them are THC in both higher and lower forms, and also cannabidiol
which has no effect but to give you the "munchies". There are _no_ opiate
substances in any pure cannabis derivative, although there _is_ a form of
cannabis resin, referred to as "double zero" where I come from. This has opium
mixed in with the resin, and hence does contain opiates. However, this is quite
rare (I have come across it once in four years) and is not thesame thing as
hashish or marijuana.
