As you can see from the graph above, in 2006 85% of all meth users were between 15 and 29 years old
Over 8% of high school seniors in the U.S. said that they tried meth atleast once, however this statistic is not effective in measuring the amount of teen users, since meth users could have drop out of school before their senior year
The meth high lasts for 6 - 12 hours and 50% of the drug is removed from the body in 12 hours
It costs a government $2000 to clean up a meth lab
Meth lab seizures have increased by 577% in the U.S. since 1993
Over 12 million Americans have tried meth once in their life and 1.5 million are regular users
The amount of meth caused deaths increased by 17% in 2006 (Washington only)
