Legal highs still available

Just weeks after the UK government banned the party drug mephedrone new 'legal highs' are cropping up on the Internet. An investigation by researchers from BBC Wales found 400 other drugs available on the Internet being sold as 'research chemicals' or 'plant food.' The most prominent ones among them were MDAI and NRG-1. Early reports from users have suggested that these drugs may be linked to paranoia, insomnia and 'harsh comedowns' where people feel "severely depressed, even suicidal."
