The Dutch Trimbos drug addiction clinic has issued a warning about a dangerous type of ecstasy pill currently in circulation in the Netherlands. The warning comes just weeks after several tourists died in Amsterdam after taking heroin they believed to be cocaine.

The Trimbos institute says the dangerous pills are pink and feature the Superman logo. They contain a very high dose of a chemical known as PMMA, rather than MDMA which is the main component of ecstasy.

PMMA is slow to have an effect, and this has led to users taking more pills because they think the first ones don’t work, the Trimbos institute said. The side effects of too much PMMA include a racing heart and very high body temperature. An overdose can be fatal. Dutch media reported on at least two PMMA related deaths in the Netherlands in 2013.

bumping this so that Dr. B might see it and sticky it…

good news is testing kits can detect it, better news is that the dutch have it narrowed down to just one pill, not so great news is not everyone tests their pills or will get this info passed along to them.

on another note, Shulgin first snythed this shitty compound.

?Superman? ecstasy tablets worth ?1.2 million seized in Dublin

call me cynical but isn’t it ironic that there is a million dollar pill bust of some rolls that aren’t even MDMA??

If they seize enough of these pills from users and turn them CI couldn’t they eventually be able to track down the source?

“According to the affidavit, there were nine pink and blue pills with a superman imprint and they tested positive for methamphetamine/MDMA (ecstasy).

Could the ID of MDMA be an error?

I see these posters still around drug agencies. I think PMMA if you actually wait for the come up time may give an actual high just not a very good one, just people get impatient and bosh bare pills. This is stupidity, never neck multiple pills of something you don’t know what it is.

For example regarding pharm opiates. Imagine someone with no tolerance getting their hands on an Oxycontin 80mg and thinking it was like a typical 5-10-20mg and then sniffing the whole 80. That’s overdose written all over it. You have to be sensible popping pills.

WOAH DOC, that’s fucking stupid. 2mg is a good dose, 4mg is a more intense dose but if you took 3/4/5 pills, you’re fucked.

I just updated the second description from the list as there is not just DOC but two cathinones and benzocaine in that pill. Not only are the warning lists in Dutch the pictures are in black and white but that is deliberately done as pill colours often vary anyway so colour alone cannot be used as an indicator of what might be in the pills.

TBH producing these (at least to someone more used to the British market/patterns of consumption) makes no sense as some/all of the NPS could easily be sold on their own for more profit (and less likely to cause a dangerous OD if people know what they are getting) and good MDMA is plentiful but the Dutch party folk are way less likely to take 3-5 pills in one session as they know how strong they could be and/or can get them tested.

Also Trimbos do not collect geographical data of where these pills were found; they could simply be confined to one area of NL….
