Canadian meth-laced ecstasy floods U.S.

Canadian drug producers are now combining methamphetamine with ecstasy, which is then being smuggled into the U.S., according to information from the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP). The meth-laced ecstasy “may produce greater adverse neurochemical and behavioral effects than either drug alone,” the agency reported.

Other interesting facts also according to people who should know:

According to ONDCP, more than 55 percent of the ecstasy samples seized in the United States last year contained methamphetamine. Cutting their product with less-expensive methamphetamine boosts profits for Canadian ecstasy producers, ONDCP reported, and likely increases the addictive potential of their product, effectively giving a dangerous “face lift” to a designer drug that had fallen out of fashion with young American drug users.

Also, ONDCP reported between 2005 and 2006, there was a 40 percent increase in the number of people in the U.S. who reported that they tried ecstasy for the first time during the past year. One-third of these new users in 2006 were under age 18 when they started using ecstasy, data stated.

So what do we call this glorious new wonder-drug? I'm tempted to call it iMeth because then I can trademark and patent it and make millions. But for street slang what are these called? Are they just sold as "E"? Get the marketing team on this. We may be missing a potential selling point...
