About Crystal Meth

Crystal Meth Facts

Crystal Meth is always made in bootleg labs and because of this the potency, effects and dangers of the drug change everytime you use. There is no standard dose or formula for crystal meth; it is an underground black market drug. 
In 2002, 20% of the meth labs that were raided had children present.
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.
The DEA is reporting that there has been a dramatic decrease in illegal meth labs. However, they are pointing out that a larger amount of more potent/pure meth is being smuggled into the U.S. from Mexico.
When meth is snorted it takes up to 5 minutes for the drugs effects to be felt. When the drug is taking orally the effects can take up to 20 minutes to be felt.
