Methamphetamine (meth) is a powerful, highly addictive drug that causes devastating health effects, sometimes death, even on the first try.
Meth is a synthetic stimulant often used in combination with other substances that can be smoked, injected, snorted, or taken orally.
Meth speeds up the body’s systems to dangerous, and sometimes lethal levels—increasing heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, and respiratory rate.
Meth use can lead to many damaging, long term health effects, even when the user stops taking meth, including permanent damage to the heart, brain, liver, kidney, and lungs, severe dental problems (meth mouth), and psychotic symptoms that can last for months or years after quitting meth.
