Research on animals over the last 20 years shows that high doses of meth can cause damage to neuron cell-endings. Dopamine and serotonin containing neurons do not die after meth abuse, but their nerve endings ("terminals") are cut back and re-growth appears to be stunted.
Treatment admissions for meth addiction have risen over the last 8 years from 1% in 2000 up to 5% in 2008.
Meth use has been known to cause respiratory problems, irregular heartbeat, and extreme anorexia.
