"Crystal methamphetamine, also known as ‘ice’ and ‘crystal meth’, is a highly purified form of methamphetamine, a synthetic central nervous system stimulant. It affects the eurotransmitters that regulate feelings of excitement, euphoria and alertness and can cause users to feel confident and energetic. However, there are many negative side effects associated with its use; these may be stronger than those associated with other forms of methamphetamine due to its greater purity. An overview of crystal methamphetamine, what it is and its effects, is provided in section two of this paper (pp 3-5). A summary of the global market for methamphetamines is provided in section seven (pp 37-41). Crystal methamphetamine seems to be a particular issue in the United States of America and New Zealand and the response of the governments in these countries is described."
