Menthol

Menthol is not a naturally occurring terpene in cannabis, but it can be artificially added to some products for flavor or scent. Menthol is known for its cooling and soothing properties, and is commonly used in products such as cough drops, gum, and topical analgesics.

In terms of benefits in cannabis, menthol may provide a cooling or soothing sensation when inhaled or applied topically. However, there is limited research on the specific effects of menthol as a terpene in cannabis.

As for side effects, menthol is generally considered safe when used in recommended amounts. However, some people may be allergic or sensitive to menthol, which can cause skin irritation, respiratory problems, or other adverse reactions. It's always important to follow product labeling and consult with a healthcare provider if you have any concerns or medical conditions.

Menthol is a terpene with a strong minty and cooling odor. It can be produced from peppermint oil or artificially derived from the hydrogenation of thymol. 

Menthol acts as an anti-irritant by initially stimulating nociceptors and then desensitizing them, while providing a cooling effect. Menthol selectively activates the transient receptor potential melastatin-8 (TRPM8) channels and helps to modulate the contraction and relaxation of blood vessels. 

Menthol, when inhaled, can reduce airway pain and smoke irritation along the airways. Menthol also helps to suppress coughing and provide the sensation of easier breathing.
