Summary

A Dutch drug addiction and mental health institute issued a "Red Alert" on Friday warning against ecstasy pills shaped like the head of U.S. President Donald Trump, urging users to "absolutely not use these pills." The pills feature Trump's face on one side—one version green and another yellow—with "NL" and "Trump" stamped on the reverse. The institute said the pills contain a high concentration of PMMA, a chemical similar to MDMA, the active ingredient in ecstasy. Because PMMA takes effect more slowly than MDMA, users may take additional pills believing the first dose did not work, increasing the risk of overdose and potentially fatal overheating.


The Associated Press reports:

A Dutch drug addiction and mental health institute warned users on Friday about potentially lethal ecstasy pills shaped to look like the head of U.S. President Donald Trump. “Absolutely do not use these pills,” the institute warned. It released a photo of the pills that have a depiction of Trump’s head on one side and on the other side “NL” and “Trump” stamped into the surface either side of a vertical line. One of the pills has a green face and another is yellow.

The institute warned in a “ Red Alert ” published on its website and social media that they contain a high concentration of a chemical called PMMA that is similar to MDMA, the active ingredient in ecstasy pills. However, PMMA is slower working than MDMA and that could lead users to take more because they think that the first pill didn’t work, leading to a risk of overdosing, the institute said, adding that use of the pills “can lead to overheating with possibly deadly consequences.”
