The use of Crystal P2P Meth has increased due to a new recipe, following restrictions on ephedrine that made the old methamphetamine recipe unviable. The reformulated drug is now more prevalent and more dangerous than before. From the late 2000s, Phenyl-2-propanone (P2P) meth has been on the rise, and now Crystal P2P Meth is readily available at a much cheaper price than older types of meth.
