Whether you call it meth, ice, crank or glass; you’d be referring to one of the most popular street drug in the world today!

Crystal Methamphetamine (shortened to crystal meth or meth) is a highly-addictive stimulant drug that induces a long-lasting euphoric high, preceded by very intense low.
It can be ingested, snorted, injected, but the most common method of use is smoking.

But why is Crystal Meth so popular, Encomium.ng looks at some reasons:

Not only is meth cheap, but its production is also inexpensive, and the drug can be fabricated in a home-made laboratory.

It is also accessible as it can be bought on the streets.
It is very common among club-goers.

Its methods of use include smoking, injecting, ingesting, snorting – making ease of use.
