Bath Salts: It's Not A Fad...It's A Nightmare

Navy Medicine psychiatry resident Lt. George Loeffler at the Naval Medical Center in San Diego, CA, discusses his firsthand experiences treating service members at Navy military treatment facilities from consequences of bath salt use.

"I would say not just as the naval officer, but as your doctor, bath salts will not only jack up your family and your career, it will jack up your mind and body too," said Loeffler in this PSA.

The Bath Salts campaign's slogan, "Bath salts: It's not a fad...It's a NIGHTMARE", reflects the hallucinogenic effect of bath salts, which are a non-regulated designer drug comprised of a synthetic cathinone, or amphetamine, that can have a dangerous or debilitating effect on the user.
