| Summary: |
Methamphetamine, or meth, has traditionally been a largely poor, white, rural phenomenon. However, recent laws have been passed restricting the sale of products containing pseudoephedrine, a common ingredient used in over-the-counter cold and allergy medications.

This program focuses on the city of Atlanta, Georgia, a hub of both legitimate business and the meth trade. |
