To start with, Wiki is not a reliable source.

Secondly, there's no proof that it caused that teenager's suicide
other than anecdotal evidence from his parents 4 months after the fact.
That puts it in a category w/ Ozzy lyrics.
The article states-

" During this time medical experts and accident and emergency rooms have not been reporting cases that suggest particular health concerns, and police have not been reporting it as a significant issue with regard to public order offences."

Plus-
" The most commonly reported after-effects include an increased feeling of insight and improved mood, and a sense of calmness and increased sense of connection with nature—though much less often it may also cause dysphoria (unpleasant or uncomfortable mood).[10] Salvia divinorum is not generally understood to be toxic or addictive. As a κ-opioid agonist, it may have potential as an analgesic and as therapy for drug addictions."

Where have i heard that before (the over 50's are probably snickering
about now) ? Kids will experiment, parents will freak out about it,
often w/ a "no kid of mine is going to do what I did !"

Next time you listen to early Yes, Pink Floyd, ect., understand that those
pieces were written by druggies, for druggies (at the time), so advice....
go have a martini, and don't freak out.
