Educational Pearls:

  • Designer, or “synthetic” drugs include bath salts, synthetic THC, and many others.
  • Many of these drugs are originally manufactured in China and are shipped globally.
  • Treatment usually involves airway control and sedation - ketamine may be useful.
  • Traditional tox screens do not test for these drugs.
