But what are bath salts? Apparently it’s the nickname for a type of designer drug that’s sold over the internet and can be found in gas stations and convenience stores. They come in pill form, powders, tablets and are snorted, injected or swallowed.

Many bath salts contain one of two psychoactive chemicals: MDPV aka mephedrone and 3, 4-Methylenedioxypyrovalerone and both are illegal in the United States since 2010, but the manufacturers have been known to modify the compounds, making them technically legal.
