About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

Meth addiction can cause the user to take the drug in binge cycles. They may use the drug repeatedly and go without sleep for up to two weeks at a time.
Drugs often go by different names on the street. Some common and not so common names that methamphetamine goes by include: Batu, Bikers Coffee, Black Beauties, Chalk, Chicken Feed, Crank, Crystal, Glass, Go-Fast, Hiropon, Ice, Meth, Methlies Quick, Poor Man's Cocaine, Shabu, Shards, Speed, Stove Top, Tina, Trash, Tweak, Uppers, Ventana, Vidrio, Yaba, and Yellow Bam.
Long-term effects of Crystal Meth use can include brain damage (similar to the effects of Parkinson’s disease or Alzheimer’s disease), coma, stroke or death. Chronic users may also develop distinct physical symptoms, as demonstrated by before and after pictures in the Faces of MethTM program. Signs of chronic use include weight loss, tooth decay and cracked teeth (“Meth Mouth”), psychosis and hallucinations, sores on the body from picking at skin, and formication (an abnormal skin sensation akin to "bugs crawling on skin"). 
In 2005 there were an estimated 2.4 million current (past month) meth users over the age of 12.
The first state to regulate the sales of pseudoephedrine products in 2004 was Oklahoma.
