25I-NBOMe N-bomb

LaVelle Hendricks and Jason L Daugherty

In January of 2014 the National Institute on Drug Abuse released a report on new and growing trends in drug use. Among those listed is a compound known to users as N-bomb. This highly dangerous, hallucinogenic substance, although relatively new, is already wreaking havoc on those who choose to use it. Even the smallest amounts can have a variety of deadly side effects. This highly volatile compound has laid claim to multiple victims within the last year, yet its use continues to spread. Its use has become so wide spread it has even caught the attention of the Drug Enforcement Agency. On November 15, 2013 the DEA illegalized 25I-NBOMe, as well as two other variants, 25C-NBOMe and 25B-NBOMe. Even still this drug is easily acquired, via the internet and other illicit channels. What is this new drug and why has it become so popular? What effect might it have on its users, in both the short and long term? These are only a few of the questions about N-bomb that need to be addressed. It is also important that we educate ourselves, as well as others, about the dangers involved should one choose to utilize this drug.
