MEPHEDRONE

MEPHEDRONE (aka Mcat, 4MMC, meow meow)

Mephedrone is a synthetic cathinone stimulant often sold as a white or yellowish powder.

It can be snorted, mixed with a drink, bombed (wrapped in paper or put in a capsule and swallowed), booty-bumped (syringed up the anus) or injected.

HIGHS

People feel very talkative and energetic on mephedrone. It causes euphoria and head rushes as well as increased sex drive.
It can sometimes cause you to feel like time is distorted, and after particularly heavy use you may experience visual hallucinations.

LOWS

Side effects include dilated pupils, blurred vision, tooth grinding, heart palpitations, anxiety, sleeplessness, temperature fluctuations and in some cases hallucinations and fainting.
Mephedrone is an irritant and commonly causes inflammation.
Snorting mephedrone can cause nose bleeds.
Swallowing it mixed with a drink can cause a sore throat.
Comedowns commonly cause prolonged low moods, and can include rashes and blueness of the extremeties (fingers and toes).

HEALTH RISKS

As an inflammatory agent, it is particularly damaging to your veins if injected.
Prolonged use has been linked to psychosis and also reported deaths.

USEFUL TO KNOW

The best harm reduction advice (besides not doing it at all) would be to bomb it in a paper wrap or capsule, to avoid the aggravation to nostrils, veins and throat.
