¿Imagina poder comprar una droga por internet y que llegue a su casa por correo? Pues la opción existe. Y no es una sola, sino cientos. @ub.edu

Nuevas drogas: baratas, “legales” y a un clic de distancia
En estos momentos se venden por internet drogas sintéticas diseñadas para imitar los efectos de otras drogas más conocidas, como el cannabis, la cocaína o el éxtasis (MDMA), pero modificando ligeramente su estructura química para esquivar las leyes existentes.
