BATHSALTS

Bath salts

Bath salts is a term used to describe a number of designer drugs often containing substituted cathinones, which have effects similar to amphetamine and cocaine. The name derives from instances in which the drugs were being sold under the guise of being bath salts. Their white crystals often resemble legal bathing products like epsom salts, but are chemically disparate from actual bath salts. The drug bath salts' packaging often states "not for human consumption" in an attempt to avoid the prohibition of drugs.
