Medical experts have been warning of a potentially lethal new designer drug exploding in popularity across the United States over the past year.

JJIE has reported on the danger of drugs and others like it many times over the past few months. Now, this infographic produced by the Pat Moore Foundation offers a look at not only the dangers and uses of the drug, but also a time line of Mephedrone's, the active ingredient, brushes with the law.
