A new family of drugs offering users a “legal high” has been found by researchers in London.
They are based on cathinone, the active ingredient in the plant khat, commonly used as a stimulant in East Africa.
Although cathinone is a controlled substance, scientists say these new compounds have been deliberately modified to circumvent the law.
Expert John Ramsey told the BBC: “Presumably [users] think they’re safe, and they’re probably not.”
The new breed of drugs are being sold for between £3 and £6 a pill.
Now i dont want to sound like a grumpy git. But if you’re a scientist and are borded and have nothing to do. Instead of looking for ways to get stoned without breaking the law you could always try and find a cure for Cancer or Aids.
Just a thought :roll:
