Attention!!! PMA and PMMA in the Netherlands and Norway

!!! Attention!!!

In the Netherlands PMA (para-methoxyamphetamine) in powder (sold as amphetamine) identified. At the same time, a link was identified in Norway between PMMA (para-methoxymethamphetamine) and recent overdoses resulting in death.

In addition, in the Netherlands Tablets (sold as ecstasy) emerged, which are about 100 mg PMMA contain. Even if there are no reports from other countries to date, it cannot be ruled out that these tablets or powders could also reach Austria.

The tablet found in the Netherlands is white/beige and has a shamrock logo on the front, is 5 mm thick and has a diameter of 9 mm.

In Austria, PMA was identified for the last time in summer 2009 in some samples from ChEck iT!

Approximately one hour after taking PMA, blood pressure and body temperature rise suddenly and sharply. As users rarely realise that they are taking PMA and not ecstasy, it can happen that they "throw it in" even before the symptoms appear, and this mistake can be life-threatening. Many people around the world have already died from PMA.

If you have consumed an ecstasy tablet or powder and you don't feel any effect, don't throw it away!!!

You can find more information about PMA/PMMA on this website directly under the button "Substances" and then "Synthetic substances".
