About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

Slang terms for meth include: speed, crank, chalk, go-fast, zip, tina and cristy.
White, odorless and a bitter-tasting crystalline powder, meth easily dissolves in water or alcohol. The drug is taken orally, intranasal (snorting the powder), by needle injection, or by smoking.
In 2006, a survey carried out by the National Survey of drug use and health noted that 5.77% of the US population over twelve years has used meth sometime in their life. The following year, Monitoring The Future carried out a similar survey among high schools which showed that 1.8% of eighth graders, 2.8% of tenth graders, and 3.0% of twelfth graders reported lifetime use of methamphetamine. In 2006, these percentages were 2.7%, 3.2%, and 4.4%, respectively. Women tend to use crystal meth more than they would use cocaine.
The red is red phosphorus, white is the ephedrine or pseudoephedrine, and blue is iodine, used to make hydroiodic acid. Making crystal meth is dangerous to the people making it and dangerous to the neighborhood where it's being made.
Meth abuse has spread out of the urban cities and is now a serious problem in small-town America. Current estimates state that 12-14 year olds living in small towns are 104% more likely to use meth than those who live in larger cities.
