The link above refers to a BBC news story about a student in Sussex University selling mephedrone to an undercover reporter. Does the story reflect that criminalising mephedrone has had any impact on its use in the UK aside from increasing the price per sale?
The ban was partly put in place in reaction to a number of deaths associated with the drug, however conclusive evidence of cause of the deaths is yet to be established. Has criminalising mephedrone had an effect on how many young people are using it and what else could be done to prevent mephedrone related deaths?
