Trends in methamphetamine use -- Chapter 2. Health effects of methamphetamine use -- Chapter 3. Tackling Australia's ice problem.Methamphetamine is a drug which can cause substantial harms; particularly the purest and most potent form of it, commonly known as ‘ice'. What exactly does methamphetamine do to your body and mind? This book explores current trends in methamphetamine use in Australia, and reveals the health and social impacts of the growing ice scourge, featuring information on related crime and violence, psychosis, addiction, withdrawal, treatment and recovery. The book also explains the latest government responses to tackling Australia's ice problem through policy, law enforcement and public awareness initiatives. The risks of using this drug are many, and the best approach is to never try it; how can we encourage young people to avoid becoming victims of the ‘ice epidemic'?Issues in society (Balmain, N.S.W.) ;Volume 407.Methamphetamine abuseMethamphetamine abuseAustraliaDrug abuseSocial aspectsAustraliaElectronic books.Methamphetamine abuse.Methamphetamine abuseDrug abuseSocial aspects362.299Healey JustinMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910466222203321Methamphetamine use and addiction2205175UNINA
