SnapChat-Branded Drugs are Sending Full Grown Men to the Hospital

Luckily, they won’t vaporize you after you take them, but these SnapChat-branded pills may send you yacking to the hospital.

This week, four people in Australia were hospitalized after consuming half a tablet of a new drug dubbed “SnapChat”. Named after the popular peek-and-delete photo-sharing app, the pills have caused people to behave “in an erratic and irrational manner,” while also appearing “aggressive and disoriented,” Drug and Organised Crime Division Superintendent Clint Sims told the Daily Telegraph.

While information on the tablets are limited, the SnapChat pills come in green-speckled pink and blue shades with the SnapChat ghost embedded on top.

“I have seen two full-grown, heavy-set men taken to hospital last night due to ingesting these,” a source divulged to Telegraph. “I know for a fact that a lot of these have been sold throughout Darwin [capital in the Northern Territory of Australia]. I really need a wide exposure warning put up about these. People will die this weekend if something isn’t said.”
