Meth addiction can cost the addict and society. In 2005 the cost of foster care for children from a meth-related placement averaged $3,859,836 (183x$21,092).
Leaders in the field of addiction recovery have found that meth causes more damage to the brain than alcohol, heroin, or cocaine.
The United States has seen an increase in meth addiction cases because the drug is easily produced, inexpensive to buy, widely available and easy to use.
Like amphetamines, meth use causes increased activity, decreased appetite, and a general sense of well-being in the user. The effects of the drug can last 6 to 8 hours.
Meth abuse can cause increased heart rate and blood pressure and irreversible damage to blood vessels in the brain, producing strokes.
