Methamphetamine

Methamphetamine (also known as meth, crank, ice, speed, or tina) is an addictive and illegal central nervous system stimulant that leads to several direct health risks for the user including brain damage, kidney failure, depression, tooth decay, and weight loss.  Meth can be ingested, snorted, smoked, or injected.  For the past several years, Jefferson County has led the nation with the most meth lab seizures.  Learn how this drug can affect you, your family, your home, and your community.
