I read about this drug in the paper today.
It's apparently 13 times more potent that concaine, much more addictive than heroin and can be made for as little as 25p a gram. It's molecularly similar to mephedrone and therefore, ecstasy but works slightly different.
To be honest, it sounds like a shit drug. Reports say it makes you feel amazing for upto 5-6 hours but the comdown is like nothing before, it makes people claw their eyes out, suicidal or manically depressive.
It makes for an interesting read, it's put me off giving it a go anyways.

The horror drug COSTS just 25p a hit compared to £10 for a rock of crack cocaine, yet it is 13 times STRONGER than coke and even more ADDICTIVE than heroin.
But authorities are powerless to prevent it flooding our streets because it is completely LEGAL.
Dave, a drug manufacturer and legal stimulant seller based in Belgium, said yesterday: "It is the worst drug ever to hit the shores of Britain. It makes meow meow look like baby powder.
"It will wreck hundreds of lives and kill many times more than meow meow - and far more horrifically. It will make users want to tear out their own eyes.
"It makes people feel like God Himself - but really it is the Devil's Powder."
Scots-born Dave admits sending meow meow to Britain but has stopped after it was implicated in 26 deaths. He agreed to speak to The Sun amid moves to make the substance, officially known as mephedrone, illegal in Britain.
He turned whistleblower to us in a bid to prevent NRG-1 - which also has the street names Energy 1 or Rave - reaching the UK's markets too.
He said the new drug, otherwise known as naphyrone, would kill and mentally destroy so many people it would quickly "fill an Olympic stadium".
Speaking to us in the port city of Antwerp, he warned: "Naphyrone comes from Chinese factories and what it does to users is truly frightening.
"It will make them feel like God for about 12 hours. But when it wears off they will feel worse than they ever have in their lives. They won't sleep for three days.
"It juices the brain, causing cerebral burn-out of a degree not seen before. It causes paranoia and suicidal tendencies and permanently alters brain chemistry with horrifying consequences."
And he went on: "The worst thing is that it is completely legal. It is being marketed as a mephedrone replacement and will be bought by children.
"It can be made by anyone with a GCSE in chemistry for around 10p a gram. That would give one person around 80 hours of the ultimate legal high, then destroy them.
"Such a tiny amount is needed that it will turn up in playgrounds for 25p a hit. I think it will become Europe's crystal meth."
Dave said each hit of naphyrone was 13 times more potent than cocaine. And just a few granules of the off-white powder have the chemical effect of a "mega speedball" - like taking crystal meth, cocaine and ecstasy combined.
Dave added: "I won't sell meow meow again because of what has happened in Britain, with people selling the drug and then not telling them it can become lethal when mixed with alcohol.
"Marketing it as plant food is the most idiotic thing that could ever happened. That decision cost lives.
"But naphyrone is the one that sends shivers down my spine. I won't touch it and want to warn people how terrifying this drug is."
Dave, who left the UK to run Alchemy Labz selling "ethical" stimulants on the Continent, showed us dozens of websites already flogging naphyrone to Brits.
And drugs forums are crammed with questions from excited youngsters about the "brand new" meow meow - at the same time as seasoned users warned against it.
Warning ... the molecular make-up of ecstasy, mephedrone and NRG-1 are terrifyingly similar the molecular make-up of ecstasy, mephedrone and NRG-1 are terrifyingly similar1 of 1
One posted: "It is flying to Heaven - and waking up in Hell."
The chemical make-up of both mephedrone and naphyrone are only slightly different - and BOTH are terrifyingly similar to ecstasy.
Dave explained that mephedrone gives users a high by overdosing the body's pleasure receptors.
But naphyrone works by over-stimulating not only those receptors, but also ones which flood the body with adrenaline. The combination causes brain "fry-out".
Dave has written to Home Secretary Alan Johnson and the Drugs Advisory Council about his fears.
He insisted: "No drug is safe and I am definitely not advertising meow meow now. If I ever thought there was a one per cent chance someone would die from a drug I would not sell it at all.
"I understand the chemistry and I want to do the right thing. There needs to be serious action taken, driven by facts and not hysteria.
"There needs to be an open discussion and it needs to hear from law enforcement officers, politicians, youth workers, scientists - and also drug users."
UK drug websites were buzzing with talk about the new substance last night. One user who had tried it warned: "Can't sleep, very bad comedown. Sweating all night."
Dave said: "I am stopping the sale of mephedrone in the UK due to the new legal position.
"I find it terrible that, under the Medicines Act, people have to sell it as plant food - which makes it illegal to tell people that it can be lethal if mixed with alcohol and in fact should not be mixed with any other substance.
"Criminalising people for giving out safety information on what everyone knows is a drug is the most idiotic thing that could ever have happened."
He also explained that there are three different strengths of NRG1 (naphyrone.)
And he added: "Naphyrone is NOT the same as mephedrone in its effects. It is not a replacement. It is a killer."

Obviously the tabloid papers will blow it way out of proportion but I can see there being a lot of designer drugs springing up in the future.
Shiit son, that sounds nasty.
Can I have a link to the original page?
Sounds terrifying.
Not the most reliable source (lol) but there's SOME truth behind this...

As dangerous as this may infact be, I can't take anything written in the sun seriously.
People do fucked up shit to make money.
I'll stick to my good old scheduled drugs for now :)
Wow, you took this seriously? NRG-1 is just Naphyrone. It's a triple reuptake inhibitor and nobody on Bluelight says it's good. They all say it's shit. That article is complete and utter bollocks. NRG-1 has literally only been on the virtual shelves for a week and a bit.
To clarify the cocaine potency thing. It's less potent than cocaine. It's also not addictive. I'm amazed they're allowed to write this shite.
i skimmed through the sun shit, and waited for dan before i made much of an opinion.
you do know the government can make them make up stories like that yeah? Since methedrome came around, it seems like a good idea to make the story worse and make britain feel like it's in a drug frenzy
Holy shit, there's a new drug called Salvia, it's 80x more addictive than sugar and 96% more likely to cause cancer if you ingest 15 grams at once!
I don't think tabloids have any regulations. They should. I think you're right imaledgev, the political party could do with another piece of ammunition to use against labour, I guess the sun are helping out.
I'm sorry but you believe something written in the Sun?
good one.
Jesus, that sounds horrible.
Article made me want to try it.
Dan made me not want to.
Meow MEOW!
Sounds bad but I would bet on them saying marijuana is half as deadly or kills brain cells.
this is why id rather see youth tripping on LSD or smoking weed, when the least harmfull drugs are out of the legal market the underground market will always come with something new and they dont care if its dangerous and/or addictive
fuck it annoys me when they call mephedrone meow meow.
I've done alot and been around people who do/done alot. I've never heard it called that.
Tell me where I can get this for 25p a gram.
Thats like 50 cents aint it.
Never mind acctually read it.

Hah. You should tell that to the sun.
Saying its worse than cocaine and that its more addictive than heroin is all scare tactics mate.. I'll give it a go and lets your all know ;)
try not to rip your eyes out.
I read that in the sun as well.
It's pretty boring. Reuptake inhibitors tend to be boring as hell.

the article sounded like marketing for me.
lol
The Sun
Anyone got a link to buy this stuff?
lol dan, i would agree with you that everything in the sun is a pile of monkey cunt. however, a friend of mine has recently got on this shit and hes doing it inbetween classes n that. he's completely fucked. he looks like hes been beaten up and he never smiles or talks or anything.he used to be on drone quite alot but he would just seem to be buzzing and more quirky than usual.
weird shit.
I dunno, side-stepping all the "ITS GONNA KILL YOU IN ONE DOSE!" media bullshit, if it really keeps you up for days with a horrible come down...
why the fuck would you want to do it? If a drug has a nasty come down it means it also has a higher tendency to form addiction: [i]The worse one feels after a fantastic feeling, the more likely they are to re-seek that substance in order to return to the feeling of ecstasy.[/i] Addiction to a substance, especially chemical substances, eventually leads to more and more damaging effects on the body be it mental or physical. [b]Talkbox[/b] says a guy taking it looks pretty damn fucked up mentally and physically.
That right there, suggests that this kinda substance... probably isn't the best for you.
Personally, I'd prefer to stay away from crap like that.
It's The SUN. You can't take that shit seriously. It's just blowing the whole mephedrone thing out of proportion.
NRG-1 is just general stimulant. Nothing special really, apparently it's not very euphoric.
Do not take this shit. It's a confirmed carcinogen. Basically, you'll get cancer if you use it. It's on bluelight and drugs-forum.
