How Is Meth Made? Purchase sample of MethÂ
Meth, or methamphetamine (N-methyl-1-phenylpropan-2-amine), is a very potent central nervous system stimulant substance that was originally developed in the 1800s. The medicinal uses of the drug were related to its very strong stimulant effects, but with the advent of the Controlled Substances Act passed in 1970, its medicinal use has been significantly reduced and the drug is now better recognized as a significant drug of abuse.
What Is In Meth?
Although methamphetamine is a legitimate medicinal product and manufactured professionally, most people are more familiar with the notion that the drug is manufactured by private individuals to be abused. The DEA recognizes that methamphetamine abuse has declined, but the drug remains a significant concern, and there are still regular news reports of meth labs being discovered by authorities.
Although private manufacture of the drug is illegal, there are numerous recipes for the drug available to nearly anyone. One can do an Internet search and find several potential methods of producing the drug. Methamphetamine is so easy to produce that there have been regulations on the purchase of some over-the-counter ingredients, particularly over-the-counter medicines, that are crucial to the production of the drug. The primary meth ingredients, ephedrine and pseudoephedrine, come from over-the-counter medications like cold medications and weight loss products.
Additional meth ingredients include:
Acetone, from paint thinner or nail polish remover
Anhydrous ammonia, found in various household cleaners
Sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid, which is typically extracted from over-the-counter drain cleaners
Toluene from brake fluid
Phosphorous, extracted from flares, matches, and other substances
Ether or chloroform
Freon from air-conditioning units
Energy drink instead of using over-the-counter medications
Alcohol
Benzene and gasoline
Lithium, which is removed from car batteries
The drug is most often abused by heating it and smoking the vapors, or by grinding it up and snorting it or mixing it with water and injecting it. Meth labs can produce very large amounts of the drug if the individuals making the drug can get enough of the needed meth ingredients. Purchase sample of Meth
