Noticias CBS<\/a>El mes pasado, en Fort Lauderdale, un hombre intent\u00f3 derribar la puerta de entrada de una comisar\u00eda local y dijo a los agentes de polic\u00eda que estaba drogado con flakka. En Lake Worth, una ciudad del condado de Palm Beach, un hombre armado con una pistola (y desnudo) se par\u00f3 en un tejado y anunci\u00f3: "\u00a1Me siento delirante y estoy alucinando!".<\/p>\n\u201cA los comerciantes les resulta barato comprar y, por tanto, m\u00e1s rentable vender. As\u00ed hemos entrado en la era de las drogas de \u201cconejillo de indias\u201d, donde el consumidor es como ratas de laboratorio; algunos se drogan, otros enferman gravemente, la mayor\u00eda se vuelven adictos, otros se vuelven locos y algunos mueren. Son conejillos de indias porque no saben qu\u00e9 est\u00e1n tomando ni cu\u00e1l es la potencia de la droga o veneno que est\u00e1n consumiendo. Con frecuencia, el comerciante ni siquiera sabe lo que est\u00e1 vendiendo\u201d, dijo James N. Hall, epidemi\u00f3logo del Centro de Investigaci\u00f3n Aplicada sobre el Uso de Sustancias y las Disparidades en la Salud de la Universidad Nova Southeastern.<\/p>\n
Los efectos de flakka son muy espec\u00edficos de la dosis, dijo Hall a CADCA.<\/p>\n
"La diferencia entre un poquito y un poquito m\u00e1s puede producir efectos adversos graves, como problemas card\u00edacos, agitaci\u00f3n, agresi\u00f3n, psicosis y, en algunos casos, un s\u00edndrome potencialmente mortal conocido como 'delirio excitado'", dijo Hall.<\/p>\n
Eso ocurre cuando la temperatura corporal aumenta a 105 grados, la persona se quita la ropa, sale corriendo actuando de manera violenta, paranoica, muy agresiva con una fuerza similar a la adrenalina.<\/p>\n
La polic\u00eda responde a menudo solicitando cuatro o cinco agentes para sujetar al usuario. Una vez inmovilizado, si no recibe atenci\u00f3n m\u00e9dica inmediata, puede morir, dijo Hall.<\/p>\n
El estimulante anfetam\u00ednico sint\u00e9tico alfa-PVP ahora se vende incluso como coca\u00edna o crack en el sur de Florida, dijo Hall.<\/p>\n
B\u00e1rbara Carre\u00f1o, portavoz de la Administraci\u00f3n de Control de Drogas (DEA), dijo que el alfa-PVP es actualmente ilegal. Es una de las 10 catinonas sint\u00e9ticas que la DEA controlaba hace un a\u00f1o. Sin embargo, los adolescentes y adultos j\u00f3venes a\u00fan pueden conseguir estos medicamentos y, con demasiada frecuencia, no se dan cuenta de que estos productos contienen otros ingredientes.<\/p>\n
\u201cLos consumidores no tienen idea de lo que contienen estas sustancias que les ofrecen, por lo que est\u00e1n jugando a la ruleta rusa con su cordura y su futuro cuando consumen estas drogas sint\u00e9ticas\u201d, explic\u00f3 Carre\u00f1o. \u201cNo sabes qu\u00e9 contaminantes, con qu\u00e9 est\u00e1 cortado, qu\u00e9 adulterantes contienen. Cuando enviamos muestras a nuestros laboratorios, no encontramos lo mismo de un paquete a otro o incluso dentro de una misma marca\u201d.<\/p>\n
Por eso, dijo, la prevenci\u00f3n es fundamental. "Informar a los ni\u00f1os, saber qui\u00e9nes son sus amigos y pasar tiempo con ellos, todas estas cosas son muy importantes".<\/p>\n
