Past year Ecstasy users aged 12 to 25 were more likely to have used other types of illicit drugs in the past year than those who did not use Ecstasy in the past year.
Methamphetamine can be produced in home laboratories using pseudoephedrine or ephedrine, the active ingredients in over-the-counter drugs such as Sudafed and Contac.
Crack is a highly addictive form of cocaine that is typically smoked. The term "crack" refers to the crackling sound heard when the substance is heated, presumably from the sodium bicarbonate that is used in the production of crack.
After the initial effects, abusers usually will be drowsy for several hours. Mental function is clouded by heroin's effect on the central nervous system. Cardiac function slows. Heroin facts about its short term effects include severely slowed breathing, sometimes to the point of death. Both first time users and experienced heroin abusers are at risk for overdose because they never know the true purity of the heroin they are using. A heroin overdose can take place if the heroin the user has purchased is stronger than they anticipated or if the drug has been “cut” with a dangerous chemical.
