A deadly combination
Article Abstract:
Research into drug abuse by injection and the risks of contracting HIV have shown that the abuse of speed, also know as amphetamine sulphate, has increased dramatically, and injecting of the drug has also increased. Users of speed have been found not to consider themselves as drug-addicts, and to be younger, more active sexually, and more socially oriented than heroin-addicts. The behaviour of speed users is closely examined.
