Methamphetamine

Methamphetamine also known as meth, ice, speed, crystal, glass, crank, biker food, is a psychostimulant of the amphetamine class of psychoactive drugs. Methamphetamine increases alertness, concentration, energy. Can induce euphoria, enhance self-esteem and increase libido. Methamphetamine has found use as both a medicinal and recreational drug. Used in treating ADHD and obesity in both adults and children. During WW2 methamphetamine was used by the Germans, Japanese, Finnish, American and British among others. It was widely distributed across rank and division, from elite forces to tank crews and aircraft personnel, with many millions of tablets being distributed throughout the war. Used on a voluntary basis by roughly half of the U.S. Air Force pilots during the Persian Gulf War. Methamphetamine is used daily by millions of Americans, who lead normal everyday lives without the much publicized "horrors of meth." Meth can be smoked, snorted, injected, or eaten.
