Ecstasy pills and deaths.

[roserjoe]

swim has heard lots of stories which say, such and such took ecstasy and died. SWIM has also heard, that no one has ever died from direct affects on E, it's just they dehydrate or over drink or something. is this true, or can people die from just taking one pill, and it being the E alone which killed them and not over drinking or dehydrating?

People die from dehydration while dancing on a stimulant such as MDMA. Keep in mind it is important to drink more water then usual and no alcohol or caffiene while on mdma. Also, many/most ecstacy pills contain things OTHER then mdma which can cause other problems and/or overdoses.

Gotchya' Thanks for the info, I also just read this, which confirmed my suspicions.

"It would appear that nobody has died directly from the toxic effects of the drug ie been poisoned or suffered an 'allergic reaction'. Instead, deaths have fallen into three categories." (Heatstroke , Too much fluid , Heart failure. )
