Other illicit drugs - "Ecstasy"
ECSTASY ... is a mind altering stimulant that causes hallucinations and feelings of euphoria.
This small tablet is one of the "Club drugs" that adolescents are taking at all night parties or "raves."
This powerful drug causes:
- Increased heart rate and respiration, nausea, faintness and even motor disturbances.
- Ecstasy users are at great risk for extreme dehydration as their energetic dancing causes an elevated temperature that, in some cases, has been fatal.
- Involuntary muscle spasms and teeth clenching may become so severe that users place pacifiers in their mouths to prevent injuries.
