Types of Drugs • Weed • Mushrooms • Ecstasy • Cocaine Meth • Crack
Marijuana • Cannabis, also known as marijuana(from the Mexican Spanish marihuana) and by other names, refers to preparations of the Cannabisplantintended for use as a psychoactive drug and as medicine.
Mushrooms • Psilocybin mushrooms are fungi that contain the psychoactive compounds psilocybin and psilocin. There are multiple colloquial terms for psilocybin mushrooms, the most common being shrooms and magic mushrooms.[1][2] Biological genera containing psilocybin mushrooms include Agrocybe, Conocybe, Copelandia, Galerina, Gerronema, Gymnopilus, Hypholoma, Inocybe, Mycena, Panaeolus, Pluteus, and Psilocybe. There are approximately 190 species of psilocybin mushrooms and most of them fall in the genus Psilocybe.
Ecstasy\MDMA • MDMA (3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine) is an entactogenic drug of the phenethylamine and amphetamine class of drugs. In popular culture, MDMA has become widely known as "ecstasy" ("E", "X" or "XTC"), usually referring to its street pill form, although this term may also include the presence of possible adulterants. The term "mandy/molly" colloquially refers to MDMA in crystalline or powder form.
Cocaine • Cocaine (benzoylmethylecgonine) (INN) is a crystalline tropane alkaloid that is obtained from the leaves of the coca plant. The name comes from "coca" in addition to the alkaloid suffix -ine, forming cocaine. It is a stimulant of the central nervous system, an appetite suppressant, and a topical anesthetic. Specifically, it is a serotonin–norepinephrine–dopamine reuptake inhibitor, which mediates functionality of these neurotransmitters as an exogenous catecholamine transporter ligand. Because of the way it affects the mesolimbic reward pathway, cocaine is addictive.
