What Is Prognosis After Administering Bath Salts?

My son experimented with 'bath salts' about 35 hours ago with some friends, they injected it into their arms and are still experiencing extreme paranoia, hyper vigilance and fear that this condition will be permanent? They know they were stupid now, but are scared to death at the length and intensity of the 'buzz'

Hi,

Please do not worry. The symptoms will gradually improve and then go away totally but this will take a few days. Just reassure your son and ask him not to worry. Please also ask him to refrain from using these substances again.

Best wishes.
