About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

A meth user who has overdosed on the drug may experience stroke, heart attack, multiple organ problems, overheating and possibly death.
A pound of crystal meth can produce about six pounds of toxic waste. These manufacturers often pour these waster chemicals and other unwanted byproduct down drains, toilets, streams, or directly onto the ground.  
When the drug user takes meth it releases dopamine rapidly in reward regions of their brain producing the intense euphoria, or rush, that many users feel after snorting, smoking, or injecting the drug.
Recent brain imaging scans on meth users found that abuse of this drug can cause significant injury to the users brain. While on meth, key brain chemicals become depleted and the nerve cells that create them become damaged.
A meth user who is tweaking experiences intense drug cravings. However, no dosage will recreate the euphoric high they are looking for.
