Club goers are happy to stick with mephedrone as their drug of choice. In London clubs, many clubbers are not using legal highs and instead opt for mephedrone which was banned in 2010.

The club scene can be filled with many different types of drugs but like anything, there is a specific culture surrounding drug use and choice. In the study of London clubs, mephedrone was the drug of choice for getting high with cocaine use also being extremely prevalent. Just because there were "legal highs" available did not mean more people were using them.

Mephedrone may not seem to have the hit the mainstream radar but it has been making the news in quite severe ways during the last few months. While banned, mephedrone is sold as "bath salts" and "plant food" in the United States and in the United Kingdom to skirt the law. You can insert your own raver zombie joke here.

Also an article in the Science Daily
Lancaster University's Dr Fiona Measham, one of the authors of the report, said:

"Although there is some experimentation with 'legal highs', only mephedrone has become an established part of the recreational drug scene. For the majority of 'legal highs' that have come onto the market since mephedrone was banned, use is low or non-existent. This suggests that what we are seeing is a pattern of differentiated demand for drugs -- just because drugs are for sale doesn't necessarily mean that people are buying them."

If you are going to use illegal drugs anyway why choose mephedrone over something like MDMA? I read that the majority of mephedrone is cut to shit in the UK post-ban and MDMA is available relatively pure. Depends on who you know I guess.
 
yeah most of them are shit and people in those clubs tend to have a lot of money so can splash out on better drugs like coke and mdma.
 
You'd be better off using Mephedrone every weekend than MDMA. Although Mephedrone acts on serotonin it doesn't deplete it as much.

I prefer MDMA, and so do most people I know. But a lot of people using drone like to go on massive benders and also buy it because it's much cheaper than MD.
 
most of the sew rc s like mpa and eph ae speedy but lack euphoria and empathy. <DMA and meow both have that
 
I remember taking this and it being like a very pure very intense e trip. It gave a lot of vasocinstriction property's although.
