Meth comes in different forms: powder (typically a white, pinkish or yellowish color), pills or tablets in a variety of colors and crystal form (irregular chunks that look like ice or rock candy).
Research has shown that extended abuse of meth can cause damage to the users brain similar to that caused by Alzheimer's disease, stroke and epilepsy. This brain damage lingers for months and even after the user stops taking the drug.
Today, meth is less expensive and more easily attainable than cocaine. Some users even have the misconception that meth is not really a drug.
Signs of a meth lab include: A strong smell of urine or unusual chemical smells such as ether, ammonia or acetone; a large amount of cold tablet containers that list ephedrine or pseudoephedrine as ingredients; coffee filters containing a white pasty substance, a dark red sludge, or small amounts of shiny white crystals; bottles or jars with rubber tubing attached; glass cookware or frying pans containing a powdery residue.
Methamphetamine is a very addictive stimulant. Users often abuse this drug repeatedly over a short period of time and find that they become psychologically addicted to the rush they experience.
