Abstract
The National Institute on Drug Abuse has made an information package on the pharmacology of MDMA (‘Ectasy’) available on its website. The package consists of 20 slides and a suggested outline for a talk that is intended to educate a teenage audience about the short- and long-term effects of the popular stimulant. The colourful slides detail the interaction of MDMA with the 5-HT transporter and show the various brain regions affected by long-term abuse. Positron emission tomography (PET) images from brains of former MDMA users are also provided. The slides can be viewed at http://www.drugabuse.gov. AB
