The Ministry of Health said that the drugs from the 'Nice Guy' family of drugs, called: ADB-BUTINACA and MDMB-4en-Pinaca, are synthetic drugs produced in a laboratory and are considered dangerous, strong and addictive.

The 'Nice Guy' drugs have caused the death of young people and the hospitalization of many others.

The side effects and effects of these drugs on the brain are considered very strong and are linked to a variety of severe mental and physical effects, such as psychosis, hallucinations, anxiety and panic attacks, bleeding, cerebral edema, kidney damage and heart damage.

Dr. Roni Berkowitz, director of the Department of Enforcement and Supervision at the Ministry of Health, said: "The explosive drugs are very dangerous and can cause death, especially when they are sold in a disguised way, so that the consumer does not know that he may be consuming a dangerous drug."

Also, the Ministry of Health called on those who recognized the product, purchased it or were harmed by its use, to contact the Division for Enforcement and Supervision at the Ministry of Health at *5400, or by email at modiin@moh.gov.il.
