About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

Habitual meth abuse will lead to addictiona chronic problem characterized by compulsive drug seeking and use, which is accompanied by chemical and molecular changes in the users brain.
High-intensity meth users are the addicts often called speed freaks. Their primary goal is to prevent their inevitable crash (coming down from a methamphetamine high). However, a meth user who is tweaking will experience declining euphoria each time they ingest the drug due to their increased tolerance.
A meth overdose is a toxic reaction that can occur at relatively low levels (50 milligrams of pure Meth for a non-tolerant user). Because each persons metabolic rates vary and the strength of the meth varies from batch to batch there is no way of stating a "safe" level of use.
Even though American suppliers still operate, organized crime groups in Mexico appear responsible for a surge in meth production on both sides of the border during the 1990s.
Crystal meth is damaging to many areas of the body -- including the brain, kidneys and liver -- but the heart damage can be extensive. Its use can cause symptoms such as irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia), rapid pulse, high blood pressure, inflammation of the small blood vessels near the brain and/or inflammation of the heart lining (endocarditis).
