    Wow! I have been absent from the United States for a long time (I’m assuming this is from the USA, where I’m from). What a thing! I had no idea this was typical back home. I guess it’s a good thing. I mean, it prevents death, right?

      Prescribed medications in the same class have the same side effect.

        Ah! I get it, then. I guess I was reading this poster as a kind of warning to recreational drug users because I didn’t put my pharmacology hat on. Thanks for the clarification. The more I interact with people on this thread, the more I see how it makes sense to post warnings like this.

      It’s specific to certain parts of the USA. Probably parts of California and Alabama, if I had to guess. The USA is very big and very diverse, which you know because you’re from there, so to suggest it’s a USA thing is oddly qualified.

      Where I live, I’ve never seen this. Does meth exist around here? Sure. Is it rampant? No. We do heroin round these parts, and we die from the fentanyl in it.

        I wasn’t referring to the posting of the sign as a practice, I was referring to the photo, meaning that I assume that the photo was taken in the USA. Yes, I am originally from the USA. Maine, to be exact. I haven’t been back home in about ten years. Anyway, I was referring to the place where the photo was taken, not the local customs.
