Drug info - MDMA in Iran

[iranian]

XTC use in iran:

XTC use is growing rapidly in iran. mostly in privet parties calle "X party" in rich parts of big cities like Tehran, Isfihan and Mashhad. it was known before methamphetamine in iran. here it is calle "X pills"

price:
it is against the rules to talk about prices. sorry.

use rate:
about 1-2 years ago suddenly low price X flod the market and it was'nt a party without XTC. but after many people died bye pills (junping from high,...) and by low quality pills with huge side effect it's use goes down.
but looks like the quality is slightly getting higher so the use.

law and government:
government using every method to keep the youth away from X. scare tactics widly used on TV by showng death victims.
from this summer police started a huge operation against drugs and privet parties raiding every parties and busting the members.
in the court they will face lashes, prison and high fines.

Conclusion:
swim thinks if the pills have higher quality it will gather a lot of users

my post was translated from iran drug control headquarter and it is not illigal but is deleted from the site.

اشکال رایج دارویی
این ماده به صورت قرص های خوراکی و جویدنی ، کپسول و مواد تدخینی و تزریقی موجود است که البته متداول تر آن به صورت قرص است که با مارک های مرسدس بنز و میتسوبیشی ، $ ، KO ، صلیب ، ستاره و ... ساخته می شود . این قرص به رنگ های مختلف وجود دارد و در بسته بندی های مختلفی از جمله بسته هایی به اشکال کارتونی مثل میکی موس ، پوکمان و ... ارائه می شود .
امروزه نوع تزریقی آن نیز دیده می شود که اثرات خود را به مراتب زودتر از انواع خوراکی نشان می دهد .
قیمت آن در ایران در چند سال اخیر از چهار هزار تومان تا چهل هزار تومان نیز گزارش شده است . اما امروزه به دلیل ساخت راحت آن در لابراتورهای داخلی ساخته می شود و به قیمت 750 تومان فروخته می شود که خطر وجود مواد اضافی در آن و عوارض آن است .
هر قرص حاوی 80 تا 160 میلی گرم MDMA است .

Does that rule include prices quoted in an official report?

no, quotes / extracts from official reports do not fall under the price discussion rule.
sources should be clearly stated however, an identified as such

Prices are I believe o.k. in the context of an article or information quoted from an article. What isn't allowed, or at least not recommended, unfortunately is links to Government sites, wherever they are.

Iranian, thank you for the info, always interesting to hear how things are in other countries, especially ones that we may not think of as having much of a "scene" - would you be kind enough to edit the original post with the source of the article, but removing the http://www. to delink it. Alternatively click Edit >Go Advanced then uncheck the "Automatically parse links" box, highlight the link then press the Remove Link button at the top before Saving. What a faff!

Routemaster, could you edit your post too, for the same reasons?

Cheers!

lol SWIM is half-iranian and as far as SWIM knows, Iranians in SWIM's country are pretty anti-drugs and/or ignorant of drugs - not that SWIM has a lot of Iranian friends (find them cocky/uptight). SWIm is the only drug taker with Iranian lineage that SWIm knows of. Nice to know the truth about the Iranians living in Iran.

I'm surprised you could obtain that information since they are a censored, oppressed society. Alcohol's illegal there.... lol

That's kind of ironic, since Iran is said to have the world's highest rate of opium/heroin addiction...unsurprising, given that it borders Afghanistan.

It may also not be totally uncorrelated to this:

So, just to clarify, saying "I know this guy who sells pills for three quid" would be against the rules, but saying "according to a govt. report, pills are commonly sold in town X for three quid" would be OK?

Sorry if this is a silly question, I'm new-ish here myself.

yes if you give the references to the said govt. report, and as long as this actually relevant to the discussion at hands.

in theory we should one day have a shiny new price calculator, in which users can input local prices of substances, and which then quotes an average. but there's some technical issues with the coding of the thing, and it's on standby.
