Do you want to minimize the risks? Then read the following tips;

  • Make sure to get your drugs tested before use. Then you'll know how strong they are and whether there's other dangerous substances in there.
  • Only use if you feel good mentally and physically.
  • Prevent overheating and dehydration. Drink enough water, but not too much. 1 glass of water, soda or sport drink per hour is enough. Take a rest and cool down every now and then.
  • Don't combine speed with alcohol or other drugs
  • Don't fight negative effects of using speed like sadness or exhaustion by using more speed.
  • Don't use speed if you have diabetes, a weak heart, high blood pressure, are pregnant or epileptic, if you have mental problems or if you're taking medication (especially MAO inhibitors or asthma medication)
  • Don't participate in traffic
  • Use your own snorting tube, keep it clean and don't share it with others. If you use something else to snort, make sure it's clean and not shared. Don't use cash money (bills) because these cannot be cleaned.
