What are possible side effects of methamphetamines?

There are so many side effects from methamphetamine use. My eldest sister is currently sitting in county jail awaiting her prison sentence. Her husband is sitting in a rehab facility for a year. The biggest side effect from their use is that my 2 nieces and 2 nephews are parent-less. They have been in foster care for a year this month. My sister, who was very attractive and smart all her life began using and soon transformed in front of our eyes. Her pretty face became more like death. The paleness and dark rings around her eyes made her look like a zombie. Her teeth soon went to hell and she had 8 of them pulled already. She was already slim, very nice figure...but it dwindled to nothing-we could see all of her bones...her once admired figure became skeletal and sickly. Her husband and her became paranoid-thinking that even us family members were out to get them and the kids. We were denied contact with them forever. Their paranoia eventually ran everyone away and then they would just make stuff up about people to try and get some drama going. My sis now after being in jail for all these months has put on so much weight from coming off the stuff that she is heavier than she has ever been. Like nearly 200 pounds now!! She almost died too....nearly a year ago, right before her kids got taken. She did too much one nite and OD'd...but the next day walked out of the hospital on her own will cuz she had to have some more. When this meth gets ahold of you...it crushes you, it ruins you and everyone in your life. They eventually sold nearly everything in their home, including their childrens beds for drug money. Sooo...the side effects are horrible and if you would like to see before and after pics to show you what a dramatic change someone will undergo while on it...e-mail me. You will be shocked at the change in my sister..its sickening and sad. Oh..and another side effect-because when you're on it, you don't care...is catching diseases. She willingly used an infected needle to get a high and is now positive for Hepatitis C.....

MOST DRUGS CAN KILL YOU. I HAVE KNOWN OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE DONE ECSTASY FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME AND DIED. I HAVE ALSO KNOWN PEOPLE TO DO CRACK /COCAINE WHICH CAN CAUSE HEART ATTACKS, SEZIURES, STROKES, RESPITORY OR BRAIN ANUERISMS. ICE/CRYSTAL METH HAS MORE OF A PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECT ON THE BRAIN. ALL DRUGS ARE HIGHLY ADDICTIVE REGARDLESS OF WHAT YOUR FRIENDS TELL YOU. HERE ARE SOME WEB SITES BELOW THAT CAN GIVE YOU A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF EFFECTS. REMEMBER THAT TAKING ANY TYPE OF ILLEGAL DRUG IS A GAMBLE BOTH LEGAL AND HEALTH.

Methamphetamine, street name, Crystal Meth.  And now is converted into Ice, like Crack, just made from Meth, not Cocaine.\n\nThe high is intense, you don't eat, barely sleep, crave SEX and your brain is in high gear, your heart will race.\n\nThis is so addictive.  More addictive than heroin.  When it first hit the scene back in the late 80's I tried it. and craved it, and if my dealer wouldn't have got busted probably died from it.\n\nIt dehydrates your body, the lack of sleep makes you nuts, you can lose teeth and your hair and skin looks and feel awful.\n\nBecause it is made using lovely things like chemicals and petroleum products in addition to the speed used (like sudaephidrine) it is also inherently dangerous.  You never know when the backyard chemist that cooked it has screwed up until you are dead from it.\n\nI would never use it again, nasty nasty stuff.  Do yourself a favor and stay away from it, or be prepared for it to take over you life.

Methamphetamines in general mimick the neurotransmitters Epinephrine and Norepinephrine. These are naturally produced in the body and regulated by other neurotransmitters. The meth will bind to the receptors for those neurotransmitters resulting in a stimulant effect of high magnitude. The more you use the drug the more tolerant the body becomes and the less natural epinephrine and norepinephrine are produced by the body to compensate for the excess(as it recognizes the drug as the neurotransmitter and will quit producing it over time). This results in a higher threshold to get "high" and therefore more of the drug required. At the same time the body is become dependant on the artificial supply being given to the body and the user becomes physically as well as psychologically dependant. The drug itself is extremely corrosive causing widespread damage to any and all tissue it comes in contact with, ultimately resulting in perferated septum, rotting teeth and gums, erroding esophagus, failing kidneys, etc, etc, etc. Dependant users get to the point that they will give up anything to get the drug, ultimately costing them their jobs, their relationships, their dignity and their life.

Try http://www.ca.org/\nOne cocaine effect, appetite suppression, is very popular for people looking to lose weight or maintain a low weight. Fashion models have been known to use cocaine in order to stay thin. Cocaine users often go days without eating and if this behavior is continued it can lead to addiction. Increased heart rate, blood pressure, constricted blood vessels, dilated pupils, and increased temperature are all short-term physiological cocaine effects. When taken in large quantities, cocaine will intensify the user's high and may cause violent and erratic behavior on the part of the user. \n\nLong-tem cocaine effects are noticeable as cocaine abuse continues and tolerance builds. Since cocaine is a highly addictive drug, it can lead to major medical complications and health problems. Some of the these complications include heart disease, heart attacks, respiratory failure, strokes, seizures, and gastrointestinal problems. Other physical symptoms include convulsions, nausea, blurred vision, chest pain, fever, muscle spasms, and coma. \n\nAs the habit of using cocaine becomes increasingly important, behavior such as lying, heating, stealing, absenteeism at work and denying the use of cocaine, is an evident side effect. While these behaviors are not directly related to the use of cocaine, these cocaine effects are often present due to the lifestyle of the addict. \n\nOther long-term cocaine effects include: \n\nAddiction\nParanoia\nIrritability\nRestlessness\nAuditory hallucinations\nMood disturbances\n\nWith continued use, many cocaine addicts develop a higher tolerance for the drug over time. Addicts are also said to "chase the high"; meaning they continue to use cocaine seeking the feeling they felt the first time they used it. For people addicted to cocaine and cocaine effects, this high will never again be felt in the same way, and this addiction can lead to insanity and death.

Not especially clear on what you're asking, but methamphetamine hydrochloride is available by prescription.  The trade name is Desoxyn.\n\nAnd you asked what types of drug is methamphetamine...it is a central nervous stimulant.  Means it gets you going, rather than slows you down.\n\nJust so I can say I said so: if you are thinking of messing around with this stuff, don't.  I have seen it ruin life after life after life, and nothing good comes from it.  Ever.

The primary effects of methylenedioxymethamphetamine last approximately 3-4 hours when taken orally. For many people there is an additional period of time (2-6 hrs) where it is difficult to go to sleep and there is definitely a noticeable difference from everyday reality, but which is not strong enough to be considered 'tripping'. Many people also experience a noticeable shift in mood for several days after use; for some this is a period of depression while others experience lifted mood.\n\nMany users report feeling extremely drained the day after MDMA use. This 'day after' effect means for many MDMA users that they need to plan 2 days for the experience: one for the peak experience and one recovery day, with very little planned. Many users also experience some level of post-MDMA depression, often starting on the second day after the experience and lasting for up to 5 days. A small percentage of users report depressive symptoms for weeks afterwards. Alternately, some users report feeling better than normal for a week or so after taking MDMA. The negative after-effects of taking MDMA appear to be worse with higher frequencies of use, higher dosages, and perhaps total lifetime usage.
