Facts

  • Studies indicate that marijuana can produce a range of transient psychotic symptoms and cognitive deficits, such as deficits in learning, short-term memory, working memory, executive function, abstract ability, decision-making and attention.
  • Methamphetamine production often occurs in environments which expose children to the hazards of methamphetamine production.
  • The abuse of prescription drugs such as OxyContin is responsible for a great deal of health care fraud, such as corrupt physicians writing prescriptions for OxyContin for nonexistent injuries. The patient in this circumstance will often use a portion of the prescribed pills and then sell the rest for a substantial profit.
  • The effects of GHB can be felt in as little as 15 minutes and can last for up to hours.
