  • Methamphetamine (Canadian Drug Summary)
    www.ccsa.ca • www.ccdus.ca March 2020 Canadian Drug Summary Methamphetamine Key Points • The prevalence of methamphetamine use in the Canadian population is low (~0.2%). • Several jurisdictions report at least a three-fold increase in the use of methamphetamine over the past five years among individuals accessing treatment or harm reduction services. • Notable increases for rates of criminal violations involving methamphetamine have been observed in the last five years (2013–2018). Introduction Methamphetamine is a synthetic drug classified as a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant or psychostimulant. CNS stimulants cover a wide range of substances that act on the body by increasing the level of activity of the CNS and include caffeine, nicotine, amphetamine (e.g., Adderall®), methylphenidate (e.g., Ritalin®), MDMA (“ecstasy”), cocaine (including crack cocaine) and methamphetamine (including crystal meth).1,2 While both methamphetamine and amphetamine are psychostimulants and often grouped together, they are different drugs. A slight chemical modification of amphetamine produces methamphetamine, which has a different pharmacological profile that results in a larger release of certain neurochemicals in the brain and a stronger and more rapid physiological response. Some amphetamines are prescribed in Canada for attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy (e.g., Adderall and Vyvanse®), but methamphetamine use is currently illegal. Methamphetamine is often made in illegal, clandestine laboratories with commonly available, inexpensive chemicals, such as ephedrine and pseudoephedrine, found in medications, among other sources. The use of these medications as precursor chemicals for methamphetamine led to stricter regulations introduced in Canada in 2006, limiting access to them by requiring they be kept behind the counter of pharmacies.3 Illegal production can be dangerous due to the toxicity of the chemicals used and the high risk of explosions.

  • Appendix-2Final.Pdf 663.7 KB
    North West ‘Through the Gate Substance Misuse Services’ Drug Testing Project Appendix 2 – Analytical methodologies Overview Urine samples were analysed using three methodologies. The first methodology (General Screen) was designed to cover a wide range of analytes (drugs) and was used for all analytes other than the synthetic cannabinoid receptor agonists (SCRAs). The analyte coverage included a broad range of commonly prescribed drugs including over the counter medications, commonly misused drugs and metabolites of many of the compounds too. This approach provided a very powerful drug screening tool to investigate drug use/misuse before and whilst in prison. The second methodology (SCRA Screen) was specifically designed for SCRAs and targets only those compounds. This was a very sensitive methodology with a method capability of sub 100pg/ml for over 600 SCRAs and their metabolites. Both methodologies utilised full scan high resolution accurate mass LCMS technologies that allowed a non-targeted approach to data acquisition and the ability to retrospectively review data. The non-targeted approach to data acquisition effectively means that the analyte coverage of the data acquisition was unlimited. The only limiting factors were related to the chemical nature of the analyte being looked for. The analyte must extract in the sample preparation process; it must chromatograph and it must ionise under the conditions used by the mass spectrometer interface. The final limiting factor was presence in the data processing database. The subsequent study of negative MDT samples across the North West and London and the South East used a GCMS methodology for anabolic steroids in addition to the General and SCRA screens.
