M**hamphetamine “m**h” use in Callaway County is rampant. Most people don’t even know what goes into the street drugs they are consuming. The formulas used 20 years ago to make m**h are different from today. Research proves that there is an undeniable connection of m**h use with mental health and homelessness. As if the old formula wasn’t bad enough, the new formula is causing more severe long-term effects.
