‘Ecstasy’ Linked to Brain Damage
From Times Wire Reports
“Ecstasy,” a so-called designer drug favored by club-goers and “rave” parties, can cause long-lasting damage to the brain, researchers warned. Experiments on monkeys showed that as little as four days of using Ecstasy, also known as MDMA, can cause damage lasting six to seven years. The National Institute on Drug Abuse funded the study.
