Designer drugs are made by underground chemists changing the molecular structure of existing drugs
to create new ones. Because unlicensed and untrained amateurs create them, these drugs are extremely
dangerous and often more potent than the original.
Ecstasy is a synthetic drug that simultaneously acts as a stimulant and a hallucinogen. Ecstasy has been shown to cause brain damage in animals.
Special K is widely used as an animal tranquilizer. It is a powerful hallucinogen that can cause visual distortions and a lost sense of time and identity.
