Crystal meth is as popular with girls as it is with boys making it one of the few 'gender neutral' drugs. Girls are drawn to meth because one of the side effects of using is weight loss, usually extreme weight loss.
Meth is abused in both urban and rural areas and use is equally divided among males and females.
Addiction treatment professionals have found that meth abusers do not necessarily need specialized treatment to conquer their addiction. However, they do need more time in intensive outpatient or residential drug treatment programs than they would normally receive.
Research has indicated that methamphetamine abusers have a significantly heightened risk of heart attacks and strokes because of this damage. Scientists who examined data from more than 3 million Texas hospital patients ages 18 to 44 found a link between heart attack and amphetamine use and reported it in 2008 in the journal Drug and Alcohol Dependence.
Large amounts of meth may cause a dangerously elevated body temperature as well as convulsions and even cardiovascular collapse and death.
