THC - Marijuana
Also known as (a.k.a.):
Pot, Marijuana, Mary Jane, Weed, Hash, Dro, Fire.
Cannabis, known as marijuana or ganja in its herbal form and hashish
in its resinous form, is a psychoactive product of the plant
Cannabis sativa. The major biologically active chemical compound
in cannabis is Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol, commonly referred
to as THC. The state of intoxication due to cannabis consumption is
colloquially known as a “high”; it is the state where mental and
physical facilities are noticeably altered due to the consumption of
cannabis. |

Methamphetamines - Meth
a.k.a.: Meth,
Ice, Crank, Shard, Crystal.
Methamphetamine (methylamphetamine or desoxyephedrine), popularly
shortened to meth, is a psychostimulant and sympathomimetic drug.
"Crystal meth" refers to the crystalline, smokeable form of the drug
and is not used for the drug in pill or powdered form. |

Cocaine
a.k.a.: Snow, Blow, White Girl, Crack, Rock
Cocaine is a crystalline tropane alkaloid that is obtained from the
leaves of the coca plant. The name comes from the name of the coca
plant in addition to the alkaloid suffix -ine, forming
cocaine. It is both a stimulant of the central nervous system
and an appetite suppressant, giving rise to what has been described
as a euphoric sense of happiness and increased energy. |

Opiate
a.k.a.:
Heroin, Smack, Tar, Horse, Chiva.
An
opioid is a chemical substance that has a morphine-like action in
the body. The main use is for pain relief. Opiates can be obtained
either legally through a prescription or illegally by the purchase
of heroin. |

PCP
a.k.a.: Angel Dust,
Magic Dust.
Phencyclidine (a
contraction of the chemical name phenylcyclohexylpiperidine),
abbreviated PCP, is a dissociative drug formerly used as an
anesthetic agent, exhibiting hallucinogenic and neurotoxic effects.
It is commonly known as Angel Dust. Once a very popular drug of
abuse, PCP use has waned considerably with the introduction of newer
and more powerful hallucinogenic drugs. |

MDMA - Ecstasy
MDMA
(3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine), most commonly known today
by the street name ecstasy, (often abbreviated to E, X, or XTC) is a
semi synthetic entactogen of the phenethylamine family. It is
considered a recreational drug, and has long had a strong
association with the rave culture. MDMA is illegal in most
countries, and its possession, manufacture or sale may result in
criminal prosecution. |
|

Amphetamines
a.k.a.: Dexies,
Pep Pills, Pixies.
Amphetamine is a prescription stimulant commonly used to treat
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults and
children. It is also used to treat symptoms of traumatic brain
injury and the daytime drowsiness symptoms of narcolepsy and chronic
fatigue syndrome. Initially it was more popularly used to diminish
the appetite and to control weight. |

Barbiturates
a.k.a.: Barbs, Idiot Pills,
Stumblers.
Barbiturates are drugs
that act as central nervous system depressants, and by virtue of
this they produce a wide spectrum of effects, from mild sedation to
anesthesia. Some are also used as anticonvulsants. While once very
widely abused, in the last couple of years, Barbiturates are rapidly
being replaced by Benzodiazepines as the drug of choice by many drug
users. |
