How long does cat the drug last (CAT)<\/h3>

Methcathinone or Cat as it is more commonly known is a stimulant that is a structural analog of methamphetamine and cathinone. It is clandestinely manufactured from readily available chemicals. It is a white or off-white crystalline powder, most commonly snorted, although it can be taken orally by mixing it with a beverage or diluted<\/strong> in water and it can be injected intravenously. Methcathinone produces amphetamine-like activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the CAT drug?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Methcathinone is a highly addictive drug, similar to crack cocaine. Like crack cocaine, the addiction is difficult to treat. The synthetic version is a dangerous addictive drug that is cheap and easy to manufacture in home kitchens. It appeared out of nowhere and created a potential drug crisis. The drug is concocted from a “witches brew” of acids, thinners, and over-the-counter asthma medication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of June 2014 Cat became controlled as a Class C drug under the Misuse of Drugs Act. Possession incurs a possible sentence of two years imprisonment, a fine or both. Possession with intent to supply, production and cultivation could each result in a maximum sentence of 14 years imprisonment, a fine or both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similar to other stimulants, methcathinone can amplify the action of norepinephrine and dopamine. Unusual stimulation of these two neurotransmitters can cause strange behaviour in some individuals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
