MDMA
(commonly known as ecstasy, molly, or 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine) is a widely used recreational drug. It works by stimulating the release of serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine as well as other neurotransmitters, providing a euphoric stimulant effect. During the late 80s and 90s, it became popular at raves. Many pills sold as "ecstasy" are really a mixture of MDMA, speed (or other drugs) and binders. When one acquires street ecstasy, they could be ingesting many different drugs. This is a problem, as certain drugs (such as PMA, which caused many deaths in the Netherlands as 'Pink Heart Ecstasy') can be dangerous if taken without knowing safety precautions and toxicity of said substance.
