Illegal drugs
There is no safe level of drug use. Illegal drugs are:
- made in unsafe, unclean, hidden and uncontrolled places
- mixed with different materials
- often stored and carried in unusual ways.
This makes it very difficult for a person to know or measure how much of the drug they are taking, or what exactly is in it.
It also makes the drug's use more dangerous.
